Remove chops from marinade; pat dry and grill or broil just until cooked and nicely browned, about 8 minutes total.

Cut into 1/2-inch cubes.
Assemble salad up to an hour before serving: In a 5-quart, straight-sided glass bowl or casserole dish, layer shredded lettuce, black beans, Cheddar cheese, pork pieces and guacamole. Spread 1 cup of the salsa over the top.
Mix the sour cream and rice together and spread over the top of the salad, covering completely.

Garnish the salad with the olives and green onions.
Serve tortilla chips on the side.
