The salsa in this recipe was inspired by Mexican salsa macha, an unusual blend of dried chilies, garlic, nuts, seeds and olive oil. We use honey-roasted peanuts to give our version sweetness. California or New Mexico chilies work best here, as they offer mild heat, subtle fruitiness and vivid color. The spicy-nutty-sweet-tangy flavor of the salsa is a perfect match for simply cooked pork chops.
