How to Make Pork Chops In Adobo Sauce
- Prepare the Adobo Sauce: Clean and finely chop 4 ancho peppers. Pour 1 cup of boiling water over them and let soak for 1 hour, or until softened. Meanwhile, in a blender, combine 1 medium onion (chopped), 1 cup tomato sauce, ½ cup white vinegar, 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon dried oregano, ½ teaspoon ground cumin, 4 cloves garlic (minced), and the soaked ancho peppers. Add a pinch of salt to taste and blend until completely smooth.
- Sear the Pork Chops: Season 4 pork chops (about 1 inch thick) generously with salt and pepper. Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the pork chops for 2-3 minutes per side, until lightly browned.
- Simmer in Adobo Sauce: Pour the adobo sauce into the skillet. Bring to a simmer, then reduce heat to low, cover, and cook for approximately 45 minutes, or until the pork chops are tender and cooked through. Flip the chops halfway through.
- Garnish and Serve: Once cooked, arrange the pork chops on a platter lined with lettuce leaves. Garnish with sliced avocado, radish roses, and a dollop of sour cream. Serve immediately and enjoy!
