This is adapted from a Better Homes & Gardens recipe. They called for chicken thighs, but I wanted to try it with pork. That said, the recipe has a couple options. Ingredients:
4 boneless pork chops |
1 cup fresh cranberries |
3 tablespoons olive oil |
2 garlic cloves, minced |
salt & pepper |
3/4 cup cranberry juice |
4 tablespoons brown sugar |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 375.
2. In a large ovenproof skillet, heat oil, garlic, and a handful of cranberries. (I cut the berries in half for the skillet.).
3. Salt and pepper each side of the chops.
4. Add chops and brown each side, about five minutes per side.
5. Place skillet in oven and roast, uncovered, 20 minutes.
6. Meanwhile, in a sauce pan, bring cranberries, juice, and brown sugar to a boil.
7. Simmer sauce 15-20 minutes until thickened. (You could also add a teaspoon of corn starch mixed in a small amount of cranberry juice.).
8. Serve chops topped with sauce.
