Moorish Pork Chops

Jamie Oliver's Food Escape - Spain.
When the Moors invaded Spain they brought grapes and dried fruits with them. Their love of mixing dried fruits with meats definitely left its mark on Spanish cooking and this is the nod to that time in Spain's history, Cut into these big tender chops and you'll get sweet juicy flavors inside perfectly cooked meat. Go to a good butcher and ask for chops that are an inch thick, ideally with two different colors of meat on them; The sweet darker meat, and the leaner eye meat. Then head to any good food store for the jarred beans. Spanish beans are like the Bentley of beans, so although they cost a bit more than the canned ones they make all the difference.
