MEXICALI PORK CHOPS

Very good

Provided by Joanne Sarver

Categories     Steaks and Chops

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 pkg taco seasoning
4 boneless pork chops, 1/2-inch thick
1 Tbsp cooking oil
salsa

Steps:

  • 1. Rub taco seasoning over pork chops. In a skillet cook chops in oil over medium high heat until meat is no longer pink about 10 minutes. Serve with salsa. Makes 4 servings.

Tips:

  • Choose the right pork chops. Look for pork chops that are at least 1 inch thick and have a good amount of marbling. This will help ensure that they stay juicy and flavorful during cooking.
  • Season the pork chops well. A simple combination of salt, pepper, and garlic powder is a good starting point. You can also add other spices or herbs, such as cumin, chili powder, or oregano.
  • Cook the pork chops over medium heat. This will help prevent them from overcooking and drying out. Cook the pork chops for 8-10 minutes per side, or until they reach an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Let the pork chops rest before serving. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, making them more tender and flavorful.

Conclusion:

Mexicali pork chops are a flavorful and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The combination of spices and the tangy lime juice creates a delicious and unique flavor that will tantalize your taste buds. Serve the pork chops with your favorite sides, such as rice, beans, or roasted vegetables.
