Step 1

Rub the ground cumin and chili powder evenly over both sides of the pork chops. This creates a flavorful crust as the chops cook. Test Kitchen Tip: Let the seasoned pork chops sit at room temperature for about 10 minutes before cooking. This helps the spices penetrate the meat.

Step 2

In a large skillet, heat the canola oil over medium heat. Once the oil is hot add the pork chops. Brown them for one to two minutes on each side until they develop a golden crust.

Step 3

In a small bowl, mix the salsa, baking cocoa and ground cinnamon until smooth. Pour the mixture over the browned pork chops and bring it to a boil.

Step 4

Lower the heat and simmer the pork chops, uncovered, for five to six minutes on each side. Stir the sauce occasionally to prevent sticking. The pork is done when it reaches an internal temperature of 145°F.

Step 5

Remove the skillet from the heat and let the pork chops rest for five minutes. This keeps the meat juicy. Before serving, sprinkle with fresh cilantro and green onions.
