Ingredients

Servings
  • 4 ounce pork chops boneless
  • kosher salt
  • black pepper ground
  • 1 ½ cups Homemade Salsa Verde or Herdez salsa verde
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • ½ cup pomegranate seeds
  • 1/4 cup Pepitas dried roasted

Instructions

  1. Sprinkle chops with salt and pepper.
  2. In a large skillet cook pork chops in hot oil over medium-high heat about 2 minutes per side until browned.
  3. Add 1 1/2 cups of the salsa verde to skillet. Bring to a boil; reduce heat. Simmer, covered, for 5 to 8 minutes or until chops are slightly pink in the centers (145 degrees F).
  4. Let rest for 3 minutes before slicing and serving.
  5. Sprinkle with pomegranate seeds and pepitas to serve.

Notes

  •  Herdez salsa verde is a great shortcut. Bold and zesty, just like it was homemade, this salsa is America’s #1 selling salsa verde and is available in most grocery stores.
