ingredients
6 thick cut, bone in pork chops
6 ounces fresh chorizo (not smoked)
2 canned chipotle pepper in adobo, minced
1/2 bunch cilantro, roughly chopped
salt and pepper
fruit salsa (optional)
directions
Preheat grill to medium high.
Pat pork chops dry. On the side with out the bone, make an incision three inches long. Working a very sharp knife into the incision, create a pocket that stretches 3/4 of the way through being careful not to break through the meat on either side. Repeat with other chops.
In a small bowl mix together chorizo, chipotle peppers, and cilantro along with a couple pinches of salt. The hand is the best way to work these ingredients together until blended. Take a couple of tablespoons of the mixture and stuff into the pocket of each chop. Season exterior of chops with salt and pepper.
Lightly oil grill and place chops over the medium high heat. Grill for 1 minute per side to get grill marks then move to medium heat coals or reduce the heat on the gas grill to medium. Cover loosely with a foil tent and cook for 4-5 minutes more per side. Let rest for five minutes before eating and serve with your favorite fruit salsa (optional).

A can of cream of mushroom soup can be a real dinner saver. It works great in casseroles and can turn into a sauce or gravy in a pinch.

This was very tasty and very hot, which I like. The recipe didnt say anything about cooking the chorizo first, which I had to do after trying to get it to cook while grilling it inside the chops. I would recomended cooking the chorizo and the chops seperatly only to bring them together at the last few minutes of grilling.

Kudos to Chef Amy! This recipe was fantastic! We did have some of the chorizo stuffing leftover so remember that the size of the pork chops will dictate how much stuffing you'll actually use and the cooking time needed. This dish is delicious and spicy, but if you prefer something more mild decrease the amount of chipotle to taste.
