Margarita Pork Chops!

I made a dish this weekend that I haven't made in years: Margarita Pork Chops! This was a favorite back when my oldest was a toddler. He is 10 now! It is quick and easy, perfect for a busy family. Somehow this recipe got buried all these years, but I am glad to have it back in our meal rotation! I don't remember where the source is from, possibly online or a magazine.

Margarita Pork Chops
4 servings
Prep: 15 minutes

4 boneless pork loin chops
1/4 teaspoon coriander
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon black pepper
Nonstick spray vegetable coating
2/3 c. water
1 teaspoon chicken bouillon granules
1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
1 teaspoon cornstarch
1/2 teaspoon sugar
1-2 tablespoons snipped cilantro
1 tablespoon tequila
lime slices or zest (optional)

Stir together coriander, salt and pepper. Rub spice mixture on both sides of pork. Spray a large skillet with nonstick spray coating. Cook pork over medium heat for 8-10 minutes, turning once until done (slightly pink in the center).

Remove pork from the skillet; keep warm. Combine lime juice, cornstarch and sugar; set aside. Carefully add water and bouillon granules to skillet. (Or you can use 2/3 cup of chicken stock). Add cornstarch mixture. Cook and stir until thickened and bubbly. Cook 1 minute more. Stir in cilantro and tequilla; heat through. Serve sauce with pork. Garnish with thinly sliced lime or lime zest, if desired.
