Trim the meat around the bones until they are Frenched. Marinate the chops for at least two hours and up to overnight. CCP: Refrigerate at 41°F, or below.

CCP: Final internal cooking temperature must reach a minimum of 145°F, held for a minimum of 15 seconds. Heat a small sauté pan until hot. Add 1½ tsp. salad oil and swirl. Add 3 oz. diced tomatoes and sauté until warmed. Ladle 2 oz. avocado tomatillo cream onto the center of a warm plate. Place the cop in the center of the sauce. Spoon diced tomatoes around the plate. Garnish with chopped chives.
