  the sauerkraut mixture is simmering, sprinkle both sides of the chops
  with salt, let the chops stand between layers of paper towel for 10
  mins, and season them with pepper.  In a heavy skillet heat the oil
  over moderately high heat until it is hot but not smoking and in it
  saute the chops for 5-6 mins on each side, or until they are just
  cooked through. Stir 1tbsp of the dill into the sauerkraut mixture
  and transfer the mixture with the chops and sprinkle the chops with
  the remaining 1tbsp dill.
