What You’ll Need

  • 1 1/2 lbs. Prairie Fresh® boneless pork chops (thin)
  • 4 chipotle peppers in adobo
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 clove garlic
  • 2 tablespoons orange juice
  • lime juice (2 tablespoons)
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon oregano
  • 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
  • slider buns (Hawaiian)
  • red onion (sliced)
  • pico de gallo
  • 6 slices pepper jack cheese

Directions

  1. In a food processor, combine the chipotle peppers with adobo sauce, olive oil, garlic, orange juice, salt, oregano and mayo. Blend well.
  2. Pour most of this mixture over the pork chops and cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate to marinate and tenderize. Reserve about 1/4 of the mixture for the sandwiches.
  3. Marinate for at least 15 minutes.
  4. When ready to cook, preheat the air fryer to 375 degrees for 5 minutes.
  5. Place the pork chops in the air fryer and cook for 3 minutes on each side and until the internal temperature reaches 145 degrees F.
  6. While those are cooking, cut the slider buns in half and add the pepper jack to half of the rolls. Broil for 1-2 minutes to toast.
  7. When the pork chops are done, let them rest for 3 minutes.
  8. Assemble the sliders by adding the red onions, pork chops, and a drizzle of the chipotle sauce and pico de gallo.
