Instructions: For the salsa:
In a medium bowl, combine all of the ingredients, including the almonds, if using.

For the pork chop: Preheat the grill or broiler or heat two large skillets over medium-high.

Pat the pork chops dry. Brush each side lightly with oil and season with salt and pepper to taste. Grill, broil or sear in the skillet, turning as necessary, until crisp and browned and cooked through, three to five minutes per side, depending on the thickness.

(Thin-cut pork chops dry out very quickly when cooked. Be sure to cook over high heat to minimize the time spent over heat.)

To serve, transfer the pork chops to the plate and garnish with the salsa.
