Preparation steps

For the pork and marinade: Rinse the chile pepper, cut in half lengthwise, remove seeds and white ribs, and chop. Peel and finely chop the garlic. In a bowl, stir the chile with the garlic, 2 tablespoons of the olive oil and the lemon juice.

Rinse pork cutlets, pat dry, place in a baking dish and cover with the oil mixture. Marinade for 30 minutes.

For the salsa: Blanch the tomatoes in a pot of boiling water. Peel, quarter, core and cut into cubes.

In a bowl, stir the tomatoes with the cilantro, vinegar and chili sauce.

For the pork: Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a skillet. Season with pork with salt and pepper to taste. Sear the pork until golden on both sides, about 1 minute.

For serving: Serve the pork on warm plates with the salsa. Serve with chips if desired.
