Chuletas with Black Beans and Rice
December 27, 2014
40
Rice, Black Beans and Pork Chops: a typical Latin American or Caribbean meal that is rich in flavors, and also nutritious. This is by far one of my favorite comfort foods. The Spanish word for pork chops is “chuletas.” My husband, just to kid around pronounces it “shoo letha”, which he says sounds like shoe leather! He is just kidding of course, he actually loves them. This is a meal that is easy to prepare, especially if you have a rice cooker and a microwave oven. If you don’t own either,
