Easy Mexicali Pork Chops
These sounds very good and a really simple rub that can be from a packet or homemade. Links to the shortcuts are listed in the Recipe Notes section.
Ingredients
- 4 boneless pork chops, ¾ inch thick, or just cut from a loin
- 1 packet taco seasoning mix, Shortcut
- 1 teaspoon vegetable oil
- salsa, Shortcut
Instructions
- Rub pork chops on both sides with the taco seasoning mix. Heat a non stick skillet over medium high heat. Brush skillet with the oil. When the pan is hot, add pork chops and cook for about 7-8 minutes, turning once, until internal temperature is 71° C / 160° F, followed by a 3 minute rest time.
- Top with salsa if desired and sides of your choice, or thinly slice and serve in flour tortillas with tomato, lettuce, and salsa.
Notes
Pork loin will cost about 125 Baht/kilo. I don't think for 4 thick slices would be a kilo, but just using that number, for 4 servings this is about 92 cents per serving. I have only seen pork chops in specialty chops and they are pricey. Going with just a loin that you cut yourself, money saver.
