When are mangos in season?

Though you can typically find mangos in most grocery stores year round, they are in season from late spring through summer.

How do you make pork chops juicy and tender when cooking them in a skillet?

To make the most juicy and tender pork chops, opt for bone-in pork chops. Be sure your skillet is heated over medium or medium high heat. Don’t overcrowd the pan, and keep an eye on the pork chops as they cook. Cook them until they reach an internal temperature of 145°F, then let them rest off the heat for 3 minutes before serving, as per the FDA recommendations.
