i modified this for a pork loin roast. and i didnt have the chili peppers... sooooooooooo<br/>I made the chili mix with 2-ish teaspoons of minced chili peppers in oil. covered the roast in a mixture of peper, chili pepper, garlic, an majoriam. i also mixed the cheese and olives in the seasoned pepper oil bowl for the yumy mixture.<br/>after roast was nearly done i put the paste on the roast to finish. i didnt add the cheese or olives till serving time.<br/>it was fantastic to find this recipe an modify to my needs.

The combination of ingredients give these chops great Greek flare. My only complaint is the cooking times didn't work for me. It took longer than 2 minutes on each side to brown and after baking for 5 minutes the roasted red pepper topping wasn't even warm yet, so I let them bake uncovered an additional 15 minutes then added the feta and olive mix and baked another 20 minutes. They did come out tender and very flavorful. Made for July's Tag Game ~ Aceitunas ~ Olives."

Thrilled with this, it's all the ingredients I always have in the house and it's a total taste sensation! I'll put the feta topping (no olives, other half not so keen) on as soon as it goes in the oven and cook all the way through instead of splitting it but the sweet/salt combo is unbeatable. Had no peppers in a jar so I just stuck a whole one in the oven with some olive oil while I cooked garlic potatoes to go with, worked perfectly. Ta KittyKitty!
