Step 1
Pat pork chops dry. Season both sides with salt and black pepper.
Step 2
Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high until shimmering. Sear pork 2 minutes per side without moving—edges should look golden.
Step 3
Remove pork to a plate. In the same skillet, cook sliced onion 2 minutes until soft.
Step 4
Pour in mole verde and broth, stirring to combine. Slide pork back in and simmer 6 minutes until cooked through.
Step 5
Squeeze lime juice over top. Scatter cilantro on pork and sauce.
Step 6
Serve pork with mole verde spooned over it, alongside warm tortillas.
