Mango and paprika pork chops
4 boneless pork chops ( about 1 1/2 lbs. total)
2 to 3 tsp. hot hungarian paprika
1 tsp kosher salt, divided
1 tsp. pepper, divided
2 tablespoon olive oil
1 large mango ( about 1 lb.) peeled and cubed
1/2 red onion, cut into thin wedges
1 green bell pepper, sliced
couscous
1/4 cup cilantro leaves
Heat oven to 375 degrees. Sprinkle pork with paprika and 1/2 tsp, each salt and pepper
Heat oil in a large ovenproof frying pan over medium-high heat. Brown pork on both sides, 6 minutes. Transfer to a plate.
Add mango, onion, bell pepper and remaining 1/2 tsp. each salt and pepper to pan. Cook, stirring often, until softened, about 5 minutes.
Set pork chops on top of mango and bake until meat is no longer pink in center, 8 to 10 minutes. Serve pork and mango over couscous and sprinkle with cilantro.
How do you pick a good mango?
ReplyDeleteThey are a little like picking a good avocado. A little soft but not to firm. I like mine more on the soft side.
ReplyDeletedon't you remember my experience with pork chops???? i don't think i can make this one, so good thing you put a bunch more for me to chose from!:)
ReplyDeletei don't remember an experience with pork chops? where have i been? has it been a long time since "the experience"?
ReplyDeletethis was good but not my fav. i think it could have used a few more levels of flavor, or maybe i just didn't add enough paprika?? loved the onions in it and also thought maybe a can of pineapple tidbits would have been good! me 3.5 vic 4
