3 inch-thick pork loin chops
1 ½ teaspoons salt
½ teaspoon black pepper (freshly ground preferred)
½ teaspoon ground ginger
¼ cup all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
½ cup chopped onion (1 medium)
1 garlic clove, minced
⅓ cup tomato-based salsa
2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
3 tablespoons vinegar
1 ½ tablespoons brown sugar
¾ cup boiling water

1
Trim the fat from the chops and pound slightly to flatten.
2
Mix the salt, pepper, ginger and flour.
3
Dip the flattened chops, both sides, into the mixture.
4
Heat the oil in a deep skillet (with an oven-proof handle) and brown the chops on both sides.
5
I find a 12-inch seasoned cast-iron skillet works best.
6
Add the onions and garlic, and cook 5 minutes.
7
If you want to, pour off any remaining fat.
8
Mix together the salsa, Worcestershire sauce, vinegar, sugar and water; add to the skillet.
9
Cover and bake in a 375 degree oven 50 minutes, removing the cover for the last 10 minutes.
