Skillet Southwest Pork Chops

Ingredients
  

  • 1 small onion diced
  • 1 Tbsp. olive oil
  • 1 tsp. minced garlic
  • 1 pkg. 1 lb. Smithfield All Natural Boneless Pork Chops
  • 1 can 14.5 oz. diced tomatoes (drained)
  • 1/2 can 4 oz. tomato sauce
  • 1 c. chicken broth
  • 1/4 c. diced green chiles
  • 1/4 tsp. cumin
  • 1/2 tsp. chili powder
  • 1/2 tsp. oregano
  • 1/4 tsp. paprika
  • 1 can 15 oz. black beans
  • 1/8 tsp. salt or to taste
  • dash of black pepper

Method
 

  1. Heat a skillet over the stovetop until hot. Add olive oil, garlic and onions and saute until onions are soft. Salt and pepper Smithfield All Natural Boneless Pork Chops on both sides and sear on both sides for about 1 minute.
  2. Add diced tomatoes (drained), tomato sauce, chicken broth, green chiles, cumin, chili powder, oregano, paprika, black beans, salt and pepper and gently stir the sauce over and around the pork chops to combine. Bring to a boil, then turn the heat down to medium and allow it to simmer until the pork chops are completely cooked through. Mine only took about 5 minutes since they were so thin and already mostly cooked through from searing. If you want to be sure not to overcook the pork chops, use a meat thermometer.
  3. Serve over white rice. We gave our pork chops a nice sprinkling of season salt after serving them up for added flavor, since the sauce tends to remove much of the seasoning from the chops.
