Pork chops with bell peppers

Pork chops with bell peppers is a traditional recipe highly valued in various regions of Latin America. Its origin dates back to the fusion of flavors between European cuisine and the native ingredients of America, especially in areas where pig farming is common. This dish is characterized by its robust flavor and the combination of meat with fresh bell peppers, which give it a colorful touch and spectacular aroma.

In different Latin American countries, this recipe may have various names or be adapted according to local ingredients. For example, in Mexico it can be found as "Chuletas al chile" or "Chuletas con pimientos", while in Argentina they are simply known as "Sautéed pork chops" or "Pork chops with vegetables". The mixture of onion soup mix and thyme used in the sauce gives it a special touch, which has transcended borders and become a favorite in Latin American homes.
