Ingredients

  • 1 ½ lbs thin-cut boneless pork chops (about ¼ to ½ inch thick, 4-6 chops). Look for thin sliced pork chops or ask your butcher to butterfly thicker chops for even cooking.
  • ½ cup sour orange juice (Naranja Agria) . This is the heart of the pork mojo marinade ! If you can't find it, a mix of ¼ cup fresh orange juice and ¼ cup fresh lime juice works wonderfully.
  • 6-8 cloves garlic , minced. Fresh garlic is non-negotiable for that authentic Cuban flavor.
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin . Adds a warm, earthy depth.
  • ½ teaspoon dried oregano . A classic herb that complements the pork beautifully.
  • ¼ cup olive oil , divided. Used for both the marinade and sautéing.
  • 1 large yellow onion , thinly sliced into rings. These will become sweet and caramelized, perfect with the pork.
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste.
  • Optional: A pinch of red pepper flakes for a subtle kick.
