Steps

To Roast the Red Peppers
1. Place them in a 400ºF oven for 20 minutes, flip and bake for another 20 minutes. The skins should be slightly charred and the pepper should be caving in somewhat. If they do not look like this, leave them in a little while longer.
2. Pull the stem off and deseed. Peel the skin away from the peppers and discard. Set peppers aside for later.
To Season the Pork Chop
3. Rub olive oil over the entire pork chop.
4. Generously sprinkle the mixture of spices over the entire surface of pork chop, including the sides.
To Cook the Red Pepper Sauce
5. Sauté the onions in olive oil for 3-5 minutes over medium-high heat. Add the garlic, stirring frequently.
6. After a few minutes, add the roasted red peppers.
7. Next, mix together the vinegars and sugar. Once mixed, add the mixture to the onion, garlic, and pepper pan.
8. You can turn up to high heat to speed along the process. Every element is cooked by now.
9. Add the contents of the entire pan into a blender and liquify.
10. Your red pepper sauce is now made!
To Cook the Pork Chops
11. Add oil to a hot pan. Once oil is hot, place the pork chop into pan and sear for 3-4 minutes to caramelize the spices. Flip the pork chop and sear for another 3-4 minutes.
12. Remove pork chop from pan, place on baking tray, and place in 350ºF oven for 3-5 minutes, until the internal temperature of the pork is 145ºF.
13. Remove from oven and let sit for 10 minutes, in order for the pork to reabsorb its juices. When cooking pork, it is very important to allow it to sit as long as you cooked it. This will ensure a much juicier pork chop.
