This is such a tasty recipe! I'm not the best when it comes to frying pork chops,so this is a plus in my book! I used a new spice mix, http://www.recipezaar.com/Kittencals-Taco-Seasoning-Mix-76616 This turned out to be dual recipe surprises! Thanks for posting Sam! Made for KK's Recipe of The Day event! -
With a few amount adjustments this turned out great, I increased the taco seasoning and also mixed in some garlic powder and cayenne, I may give this a try using chicken thighs next time, thank you for sharing this great recipe Sam, this was made for KK's forum Pink event! -
This was a very easy and filling recipe (we have lots of leftovers) It has a very nice mix of flavors and ingredients. It does take longer than 30 minutes to cook and for some reason the tops of my pork chops were raw and the bottoms were done, so had to put back in for a few more minutes. I felt it needed the sour cream and salsa to kick the taste up a little.

I love http://peoplestring.com/?u=sshupe
I get paid to read snail mail and email. It is an awesome free portal where you get paid for what you are already doing on the web.
I live in Utah with my husband and son. They are my taste testers and are very happy that I love to cook. During the summer we camp and cook via dutch oven. My falls and springs are filled with canning. When I am actually working I do medical coding from home so I can take care of my son.
One thing I appreciate about Zaar is it keeps me from saying.
