CHIPOTLE LAMB CHOPS

Steps:

• Mince and mash the chiles into a paste with a large knife, then mix with the adobo sauce, cumin and thyme in a small bowl. Season the lamb chops with salt and coat with the chile mixture.
• Heat the olive oil in a large Dutch oven or wide deep skillet over high heat. Add the lamb chops and cook until browned on both sides and a crust starts to form, 8 to 10 minutes.
• Stir in the onion and cook until soft, about 4 minutes. Add the garlic, cilantro, bay leaves and cinnamon, and cook until the garlic is soft, about 3 minutes. Add the tomatoes with their juices; use a wooden spoon to break up the tomatoes and scrape up the browned bits from the bottom of the pot. The chops should be barely submerged in liquid; add up to 1/2 cup water, if needed. Cook until the meat is tender and the sauce is slightly thickened, about 20 minutes. Serve the chops with the sauce.

CHIPOTLE ORANGE GLAZED PORK CHOPS

Steps:

• In a small bowl combine the maple syrup, orange juice concentrate and chipotle.

MAPLE-CHIPOTLE PORK CHOPS

Steps:

• Bring the chicken broth, vinegar, maple syrup, chipotles in adobo, chili powder, tomato sauce, garlic, a generous pinch of salt and a few grinds of pepper to a simmer in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Reduce heat to medium-low and gently simmer until thick, stirring occasionally, about 25 minutes. Reserve 1/2 cup of the sauce for serving.
• While the sauce simmers, adjust an oven rack about 4-inches below the heat source and preheat the broiler to high.
• Put a broiler pan or foil-lined baking sheet under the broiler to preheat for 5 minutes. Sprinkle the pork chops with salt and pepper, put on the preheated pan and brush with the some of the sauce. Broil the chops, brushing with more sauce, 2 to 3 more times, until cooked through and slightly charred, about 8 minutes (do not flip). Serve the pork chops with potato salad or mashed potatoes, wilted spinach and the extra sauce on the side.

CHIPOTLE PORK CHOPS

Steps:

• Combine the chiles and adobo sauce, garlic, bay leaves, cumin, thyme, cinnamon and 5 teaspoons salt in a food processor and pulse to make a paste. Transfer to a shallow dish and add the onion, tomatoes, cilantro and 1/3 cup olive oil; mix well. Add the pork chops, turning to coat; cover and refrigerate 4 hours or overnight.
• Preheat a grill to medium. Meanwhile, remove the pork chops from the marinade, scraping off the excess, and transfer to a plate. Transfer the marinade to a skillet; add 1/4 cup water and cook over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until the liquid simmers and the onions start sizzling, about 10 minutes. Remove from the heat and set aside for basting. (You can also do this in a cast-iron skillet on the grill.)
• Brush the chops with olive oil and transfer to the grill. Cook until marked, 7 to 8 minutes, rotating the pork 45 degrees halfway through to create a crosshatch pattern and brushing with the liquid from the marinade. Flip and repeat, brushing with more marinade, including some pieces of onion and tomato. Remove from the grill and let rest 5 minutes.

COFFEE-CHIPOTLE PORK CHOPS

Steps:

• Mix together the salt through allspice. Coat each pork chop with the rub, covering both sides generously. Reserve any leftover rub for a future use. Place the pork chops in a plastic food storage bag and refrigerate for 8 hours.
• To cook the pork chops, remove them from the refrigerator and allow to come to room temperature, about 30 minutes. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• In a large ovenproof skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium-low heat. Add the pork chops, and cook on each side for 5 minutes. Place the skillet in the oven and cook the pork chops for 15 minutes, uncovered, or until a meat thermometer reads 145 degrees F. Allow to rest for 10 minutes before serving (there will be carry-over cooking).

CHIPOTLE LIME MARINATED GRILLED PORK CHOPS OR TENDERLOIN

CHEESY CHIPOTLE CHOPS

Steps:

• Cook macaroni according to directions on the box, set aside, keeping warm.
• Brown chops in oil over medium/high heat for 10 minutes, or until almost cooked; time depends on the thickness of the chops.
• Lower heat to medium/medium-low and remove chops, set aside keeping warm.
• Sprinkle flour into pan, just like you are going to make a roux.
• Allow to cook for two or three minutes so that you don't get a floury taste in your sauce.
• Slowly add milk, go slowly,you might want to use a whisk.
• Bring sauce just to a boil and add chipotles.
• Start adding cheese a little at a time and stir well until melted.
• Put chops back in pan and cook over low heat until chops are done about 5-10 minutes.
• Right before serving, stir in cilantro.
• Serve over elbow macaroni and top with chopped tomatoes.
• I actually never removed the chops, sprinkled the flour directly over them and made my sauce around the them; I also threw the macaroni into the pan for the last few minutes and stirred it in so that each noodle would be totally coated with cheesey sauce.
