Mexican Pork Chops

Just when I think I've seen every possible way of cooking pork chops, another unique recipe catches my eye! I loved how simple this recipe was, not only in ingredients, but also in the preparation! This is my favorite kind of recipe...minimal ingredients with big flavors! My family loved these pork chops. And my hubby loved the leftovers! He put them between sliced bread and ate them, cold, as a sandwich! I found this recipe on a food blog called Michele's Woman Cave.
