Pork is a tough meat, and barely any flavor. I want to create a very flavorful, juicy and tender recipe with Mexican layers of chiles and spices to enhance the beef pork flavor.


Bringing the pork chops in a solution of liquids blending different ingredients and a dry rub. I give a deeper flavor to the meat by creating the tomato sauce. The chops are served over spicy tomato sauce and garnish with more sauce on top


Chops marinade:

3 teaspoon of olive oil

1 teaspoon lime juice

2 teaspoon of rosemary chopped fine

1 teaspoon salt


Dry rub ingredients:

1 pound pork chops

1 teaspoon paprika powder

1 teaspoon achiote powder

1/2 teaspoon dry oregano

1/2 teaspoon cumin

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon black pepper

1/2 teaspoon ancho chile powder


Tomato sauce ingredients:

1 onion. halved and sliced thin

3 roman tomatoes chopped

1 tablespoon of fresh cilantro chopped

1 garlic minced

2 serrano peppers chopped fined

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon black pepper

2 tablespoon olive oil




Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium high heat, add onions, garlic, salt until onions are caramelized, about 5 minutes. Add the rest of the ingredients stirring until all ingredients are mixed and bring it to a simmer for 8 minutes.


In small bowl mix the marinade ingredients and place it inside a plastic bag with the pork chops to marinade for 1 hour.


Then remove the pork chops from the plastic bag and coded with dry rub on both sides of each chop.

On a cast iron skillet or frying pan over high medium heat add 2 teaspoon of cooking oil and place the pork chops to be browned each side, about 2-4 minutes per side, lower the heat and cover with a lid for additional 5 minutes flipping the chops several times.


Serving:

In a large serving plate place the cooked tomato sauce and transfer the fried pork chops on top, serve with white rice, salad and garnish with chopped cilantro.
