- 4 pork chops, boneless
- 1/2 cup chopped green onions
- 1/3 cup cliantro, fresh, finely chopped
- 4 ounces green chilis, diced
- 1/2 cup monterray jack cheese, grated
- 3 cloves garlic, diced
- 1 tablespoon cumin, ground
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- dash hot sauce
- generous sprinkling of fresh black pepper
- coarse salt
- 2 tablespoons chili powder
- dash of cayenne or powdered chipotle
Instructions
Combine green onions, cilantro, green chilis, cheese, garlic, cumin, salt, pepper, and hot sauce in a large bowl. Cut a pocket into each pork chop and stuff this mixture into the opening. If necessary, fasten it closed with a toothpick. Put the stuffed pork chops into a greased baking dish.
Sprinkle coarse salt, chili powder, and cayenne over the chops. If there’s extra filling, put it on top and around the pork chops.
Bake at 350 F for about an hour.
Notes
I found this recipe to be a little too dry. Next time, I’ll probably pour a jar of green salsa around the pork chops, and serve them with some additional salsa.
