Ingredients

  • Vidalia or Spanish Onion (med)
  • Green Pepper (large)
  • Red Pepper (large)
  • Garlic (1-2 cloves)
  • Adobo Seasoning (2 - 3 tsp)-optional
  • Olive Oil ~ 1-2 tbs
  • Pork Steak (1-2 lb)
  • Red Wine (1/2 cup)
  • Diced Tomatoes (2 medium cans)
  • Tomato Paste (1 small can)
  • Pepper (1-2 tsp)
  • Kosher Salt (1/2 tsp)
  • Crushed Red Pepper (~ 1/4 tsp)
  • Brown Sugar ~ 1/2 tsp

Method

  • Rub the pork steaks in a little olive oil and adobo seasoning. If adobo isn't available try plain black pepper, southwest, cajun, or even a little chili powder. Set meat aside.
  • Saute onion, garlic, & peppers in dutch oven with a little olive oil. I like to include some larger onion & pepper sizes (1/2" to 1" square). Remove from dutch oven & place in bowl.
  • Add the pork steak to the dutch oven and brown 1-2 minutes per side. Remove meat from dutch oven.
  • Add the wine and scrape the bottom of the dutch oven until free of meat crust. Allow the wine to simmer off for a few minutes (don't burn).
  • Add the meat, onion/pepper mixture, and rest of the ingredients. Only add one can of water with the tomato paste. Simmer for 20 - 40 minutes.
  • Serve over pasta with a good Chianti.
