Chuletas de Puerco en Salsa (Pork Chops Braised in a Fresh Tomato Salsa)

November 4, 2017 By Cathy 14 Comments

There is something about smothered pork chops that forever and ever will have a place in my kitchen…..like this Chuletas de Puerco en Salsa (Pork Chops Braised in a Fresh Tomato Salsa) made in a simple tomato jalapeno based sauce with aromatic spices.  Tender pork chops that break apart with a fork and no need for a knife.  Serve pork chops on top of white or yellow rice.  Excellent meal!!

Hi guys!  I know, I know, it’s been a while since you have seen another Mexican appetizer from yours truly but sorry I was taking a little hiatus and spending precious time with my son before he left to bootcamp!   My little guy or shall I say my young man, has always wanted to join the military, one branch in particular, since he was at the tender age of six.  This mom is proud to say he has gone and left to achieve his dream and has made me a proud mama already!!
