In two large heavy skillets, heat oil over medium-high heat; add chops and brown on both sides; sprinkle with salt and pepper. Cover, reduce heat to medium-low and cook for about 10 minutes. Drain on paper towels.
Meanwhile, combine rice, tomatoes, beans, chilies, cumin, chili powder, 1/2 tsp. salt and oregano in large shallow baking dish big enough to hold mixture comfortably or two 9-inch square baking dishes. Place pork chops on top. Cover with foil and bake about 25 minutes in 350F oven or until chops are tender and rice mixture is bubbly. Sprinkle chops with cheese and bake, uncovered, for 5 minutes to melt cheese.
