The cherry salsa added a very nice cool and tangy element to the chops. I chose to bake my chops though, instead of pan frying, which was only personal preference. I would like to try this recipe again on a hot summer night when cooler dishes seem to be the order of the day. Thanks for sharing your recipe, xxciv. Made for Spring 2010 Pick-A-Chef.

I am a mother to two, a wife to one, a college student, and a part-time employee at a retail clothing shop. I do not have a lot of time to spare. I like to cook, but I generally need dinners and lunches to come in under 30 minutes of cooking time.
