Suggest a better description1. In a blender, puree the tomatoes, onion, garlic, chilies, cumin and 1 teaspoon salt until smooth, about 1 minute. Using a paring knife, make a couple of vertical cuts in the silver skin that encircles each chop; evenly space the cuts and try to cut through the silver skin without cutting into the meat. Season the chops on both sides with salt and pepper.
2. In a 12-inch skillet over medium-high, heat the oil until beginning to smoke. Add 2 of the chops in a single layer and cook until well browned, about 3 minutes. Transfer to a large plate, turning the chops browned side up. Repeat with the remaining 2 chops. Let the empty skillet cool for 2 to 3 minutes.
3. Add the tomato puree and oregano to the skillet. Cook over medium, stirring and scraping up any browned bits, until slightly thickened, 10 to 15 minutes; adjust the heat as needed to maintain a simmer. Return the chops, browned side up, and any accumulated juices to the pan, nestling the chops into the sauce. Spoon sauce over the chops to submerge. Cook, uncovered, until the meat near the bone reaches 160°F or is just barely pink when cut, 4 to 5 minutes.
4. Transfer the chops to a platter. Taste the sauce and season with salt and pepper; for added spiciness, stir in additional adobo to taste. Spoon the sauce over and around the chops, then sprinkle with the cotija and cilantro.
Don’t forget to nick the silver skin on the pork chops. This prevents them from warping during browning. Also, be sure to let the skillet cool a bit before pouring in the tomato puree. Otherwise the puree will splatter.
