P 142
Cooker 1 1/2 - 3 qt
Setting & Cook Time High 3-4 hours
Ingredientes
- 2 tsp olive oil I didn't use this
- Two 1 inch thick boneless center cut pork chops I did 8 chops
- 2/3 cup chunky tomato salsa, fresh or jarred I used an entire qt
- 1 TBSP freshly squeezed lime juice I used 3 small limes
- 1 TBSP freshly squeezed orange juice I used 1 medium orange
- Squeeze of fresh grapefruit I used 1/2 of a grapefruit
Direcciones
- 1. In a heavy skillet over high heat, heat the olive oil and quickly sear and brown the pork chops on both sides. Place the pork chops in the slow cooker. I don't use the olive oil because I use a non stick pan. I seared the pork chops until I couldn't see any pink on either side. I could still see pink on the edges of the chops, but not the top or bottom.
- 2. In a small bowl, combine the salsa and juices, and pour over the pork. Cover and cook on HIGH for 3-4 hours, until the meat is tender. Serve immediately.
- These turned out spicier than I had anticipated. Not so spicy that we couldn't eat it, just spicy enough that the kids were a bit hesitant. I did use homemade salsa too so you could possibly control the spice by which kind of salsa you use. My husband didn't like the pork chops because they had a sweet taste to them. I could taste the grapefruit stronger than I thought I would. I would only use 1/4 of a grapefruit if I did it in this quantity again.
