Description

This rich pork dish is usually prepared on special occasions or when expecting company.

Ingredients
  • 2 ¼ boneless pork chops
  • ½ pound pork liver
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 onion, diced
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 tomatoes, diced
  • 1 (15.5 ounce) can garbanzo beans, drained
  • 1 (1.5 ounce) box raisins
  • 2 potatoes, diced
Directions
  1. 1. Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil; add the pork chops and return to a boil. Cook the pork chops at a boil for 5 minutes, remove, and set aside to cool. Remove 1 cup of the broth from the pot and set aside for later use. Once the chops are cooled to the touch, cut into bite-size pieces.
  2. 2. Return the water to a boil; add the pork liver to the pot and cook at a boil until tender, 7 to 10 minutes. Drain and discard the liquid. Set the liver aside to cool; cut into bite-size pieces.
  3. 3. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat; cook and stir the onion and garlic in the hot oil until tender, about 5 minutes. Stir the pork chops into the onion and garlic; cook and stir together for 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Add the tomatoes and reserved broth; cover and cook for 10 minutes. Stir the pork liver, garbanzo beans, raisins, and potatoes into the mixture; cover and simmer until the potatoes are fork-tender, about 10 minutes.
