Ingredients

  • 4 pork loin chops with bone (1 1/4 lb)
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 2 shallots or 1/2 onion, diced
  • 2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
  • 1/3 cup reduced-sodium chicken broth
  • 1/3 cup dried cranberries
  • 1/4 cup apple jelly
  • 3 tablespoons cider vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon fresh rosemary, chopped or 1/2 teaspoon dried rosemary

Method

  • Sprinkle pork chops with half salt and pepper. In a large skillet, heat half the oil at medium-high heat. Add pork chops and brown for about 4 minutes (flip them one time). Set aside in a plate.
  • Deglaze the skillet. Heat remaining oil at medium heat. Add shallots, garlic and remaining salt and pepper, stirring from time to time, for about 2 minutes or until shallots have softened. Add remaining ingredients and cook, while stirring, for about 4 minutes or until jelly has melted and cranberries are tender.
  • Put the pork chops back in the skillet with their juices and flip them to coat well. Reduce heat, cover and let simmer 8 to 10 minutes or until slightly pink inside. Set aside in a warm place. Simmer the sauce for about 1 minute or until thicken. Serve the pork chops with the sauce on it.
