Pork Chops with Black Beans and Salsa
Ingredients
  • 4 bone-in pork chops
  • ground black pepper to taste
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 (15 ounce) can black beans, with liquid
  • 1 cup salsa
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro
Instructions
1
Prepare pork chops by sprinkling a generous amount of black pepper over them.
2
Heat a substantial quantity of oil in a large cooking vessel over a moderately high heat setting. Sear the pork chops in hot oil until they acquire a rich brown color, approximately 3 to 5 minutes on each side.
3
Add the contents of a can, along with a packet of spicy tomato-based sauce, over the pork chops. Season with chopped cilantro leaves to enhance flavor. Bring the mixture to a rolling boil, then gradually decrease the heat to a low setting, cover the cooking vessel with a lid, and let it simmer until the pork chops are no longer pink in their center, ranging from 20 to 35 minutes. To verify doneness, insert an instant-read thermometer into the center of the pork chops and check that it reaches a temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit (63 degrees Celsius).
