pork with corn & avocado salad
This dish has become a new summer favorite of ours.
Chili-Lime Pork Chops with Corn & Avocado Salad
to serve 2 you will need:
2 pork chops (0.3 to 0.5 pounds each, depending how hungry you are!)
1 jalapeño, diced
4 bunches green onion, chopped
1 handful cilantro, chopped
2 limes, cut into wedges
2 cans corn, drained
1 avocado, sliced
olive oil
1 tsp ground cayenne pepper
paprika
salt and pepper
In a mixing bowl combine olive oil, chili powder, paprika, salt, and pepper to taste. Add pork chops and turn until coated. Cook in a skillet or grill pan over medium high heat.
Combine corn and jalapeño in a skillet over low heat, stirring occasionally until warm. In a mixing bowl, combine green onion, cilantro, and the juice of 1 lime. Add corn mixture and avocado. Salt to taste.
Serve pork with corn and avocado salad, garnished with extra lime wedges.

tweaked
Just after writing my last post I decided to get moving with hanging some frames with the thought of creating a gallery wall in the bedroom. But once I cleared off the top of the dresser I realized I like it better that way. Simple and uncluttered. So I just tweaked things. There's something so satisfying about keeping that spot clear and pretty.
