Recipe Extra: Cholula Hot Sauce and Mom's Asian-Mexican Pork Chops

 

Sunday, during Recipe Weekend, we did a product review for Cholula Hot Sauce, and their new varietal hot sauces, and today we're going to talk about another one of their new flavors: Cholula Chipolte Hot Sauce.

The new Cholula Chipotle Hot Sauce combines the original Cholula flavor with the smokey, slightly sweet flavor of real Chipotle peppers. We like cooking with Chipotle peppers and their sweetness helps offset the heat and produces and excellent flavor in any of your recipes.


Recognizable by it's brown wooden stopper, this new flavor is excellent over chicken or pork, and has JUST the right amount of blend to make your mouth say WOW for whatever it is tasting! It also really wakes up your morning eggs!


Mom likes to blend ethnic flavors, so she added it to a favorite Asian inspired Pork Chop recipe and came up with a real winner for when you really want to impress your guests! And because they are done on the grill, you get freed up to socialize with your guests! A win-win situation!


Mom's Asian-Mexican Pork Chops
Ingredients:

• 1/4 cp lime juice
• 1/4 cp orange juice
• 2 tbsp soy sauce
• 2 tbsp grated onion
• 1 tbsp teriyaki sauce
• 2 tbsp Cholula Chipotle Sauce, or less/more to taste
• 1 garlic clove, peeled
• 1/8 tspn ground ginger
• 2 tbsp olive oil
• 1 tspn salt
• 1/2 tspn dried oregano
• 1/2 tspn coarsely ground pepper
• 1/4 tspn ground cumin
• 4 boneless pork loin chops (8 ounces each)

Instructions:
1. For sauce, combine the first eight ingredients in a blender; cover and process until smooth. 
2. Transfer to a small bowl; set aside. 
3. Combine the oil and the rest of the spices, then gently rub the mix over both sides of pork chops.
4. Grill chops, covered, over medium-hot heat for 4-5 minutes on each side, basting occasionally with 1/3 cup of the sauce. Let meat stand for 5 minutes before serving. 
5. Serve with remaining sauce.   Yield: 4 servings.


This is a varietal we use just about as much as the original blend! It's staying on the table with the condiments for everyday use!
