For extra flavor, consider adding a pinch of red pepper flakes to the tomato sauce for a subtle kick. Serve these tomato-smothered pork chops with a side of fluffy rice, creamy mashed potatoes, or crusty bread to soak up the delicious sauce. If you prefer a richer sauce, you can add a tablespoon of tomato paste along with the canned tomato sauce.
