    These moist and tender chops will appeal to the entire family. Cilantro, lime and cumin blend wonderfully for a little Southwestern flavor.

    My sauce never thickened. I wonder if the cornstarch should have been tablespoons instead of teaspoons. It was at least 1 1/2 cups of liquid to cook down a bit.

    Still, it was very flavorful. My kids (3, 5, & 9) and husband all enjoyed it. We served it with asparagus, buttered/herbed pasta, and pico de gallo. And the adults had a torrontes wine paired with the meal. It was great - and the house smelled SO good.

    I was excited to try this recipe, and we were not disappointed. It has a wonderfully unique flavor that is very pleasant. However, there definitely is something wrong with that corn starch measurement. i ended up simmering the sauce for 10 minutes or so until it reduced down to a thicker consistency; since I was only making it with 4 pork chops instead of 6 I didn't need all the sauce it would have made. Next time I will increase the cornstarch. I tried black beans as a side dish, that was so/so. I am going to try a Spanish rice type recipe with it next time.
