Step 1

In a small bowl, stir together peaches, onion, chipotle, lime juice, half the cilantro and 1/4 tsp salt; set aside. In another bowl, stir together chili powder, cumin, sugar and 1/2 tsp each of salt and pepper. Season the pork chops on both sides with the spice mixture, pressing so the seasoning adhere.

Step 2

In a 12 in skillet over med-high, heat 1 tbsp oil until barely smoking. Add 2 of the pork chops, reduce heat to medium and cook until we’ll browned on the bottoms, 5 minutes. Flip and cook until we’ll browned on the second sides and the thickest parts register 135 F. Transfer to a platter and tent with foil; discard the oil. Using the remaining oil, cook the remaining chops, place in the platter and re-cover with foil. Let rest for 10 minutes. Taste and season the pico de gallo with salt. Serve with the pico de gallo and sprinkled with the remaining cilantro.
