Pork Chops Diablo
Total time: 30 minutes
Diablo or deviled usually means spicy, often hot and always full of rich, complex flavors. These zesty pork chops are a perfect example. The ones I get are quite thin. You may need to increase the cooking time if you are using very thick ones.
Ingredients:
- 2 - 4 pork chops, depending on size, 12oz total, 350gr, 12.5oz boneless top loin chops
- 1 large onion, 175gr, 6.2oz

- 1 tbs cornstarch (maizena) dissolved in 2 tbs water 8gr, .28oz
Instructions:
- Peel and slice onion.
- Combine flour and 1 tbs chili powder in plastic food bag. Add pork chops and toss to coat.
- In nonstick skillet large enough to hold the chops heat 2 tsp oil over medium-high heat.
- Add chops and sauté about 3 minutes per side, until lightly browned. Remove and set aside.

General Technical Details and Disclaimer:
Note: Pork chops vary greatly in calories; this assumes top loin chops with fat trimmed but not completely removed. Center cut chops are higher; sirloin cut chops are lower.
I assume half, 2 tbs, of the flour will be eaten.
Half the sodium comes from canned tomato sauce.
Measurements are actual measurements used for calculation. If there are no values the nutritional numbers were simply too small.
I try to be accurate, but I do not guarantee it. I use 'grams' as the unit of weight; with an approximate conversion to ounces.
