My husband and two kids rave over these moist chops. Use the mild sweet-and-sour sauce to make a gravy that can be served over mashed potatoes or rice. Then add a salad and you have a very satisfying meal that didn't keep you in the kitchen for hours. -Robin Czachor, Appleton, Wisconsin

PORK CHOPS WITH CRANBERRY SAUCE



Pork Chops With Cranberry Sauce image

Provided by Pierre Franey

Categories     dinner, easy, main course

Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

4 lean loin pork chops, about 1 1/2 pounds
Salt to taste if desired
Freshly ground pepper to taste
1 navel orange, about 1/2 pound
1 1/2 cups raw cranberries
2 tablespoons flour
2 tablespoons corn, peanut or vegetable oil
2 tablespoons butter
1/3 cup finely chopped onion
2 tablespoons brown sugar
2 tablespoons red-wine vinegar
1 tablespoon tomato paste
1/2 cup fresh or canned chicken broth
1 tablespoon finely chopped parsley

Steps:

  • Sprinkle the chops on both sides with salt and pepper.
  • Peel the orange and cut it crosswise into 4 slices of equal thickness. Cut each slice into 8 equal-size pieces. Put the cranberries and orange pieces into the container of a food processor or electric blender and blend well but coarsely. There should be about 1 1/2 cups.
  • Dredge the chops on both sides in flour and shake off excess.
  • Heat the oil in a heavy skillet large enough to hold the chops in one layer. When the oil is quite hot add the chops and cook until nicely brown on one side, about 8 minutes. Turn the chops and cook until browned on the other side, about 5 minutes. Reduce the heat. Cover and simmer 12 minutes.
  • Transfer the chops to a warm serving platter and pour off the fat from the skillet.
  • Add 1 tablespoon of the butter to the skillet and when it is melted add the onion. Cook, stirring, until wilted. Add the brown sugar and stir to dissolve. Add the vinegar and tomato paste and stir until blended. Add the cranberry and orange mixture and the broth. Stir to blend. Add any liquid that has accumulated around the chops. Let simmer about 1 minute. Stir in the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter. Pour the sauce over the chops and sprinkle with parsley.

Tips:

  • Choose the right pork chops: For this recipe, it's best to use bone-in pork chops that are at least 1 inch thick. This will help ensure that the chops stay moist and juicy during cooking.
  • Cook the pork chops over medium heat: This will help prevent the chops from overcooking and becoming dry.
  • Use a meat thermometer to ensure the pork chops are cooked to the correct temperature: The internal temperature of the pork chops should reach 145 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Let the pork chops rest before serving: This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, resulting in more tender and flavorful chops.
  • Serve the pork chops with your favorite sides: Some popular sides for pork chops include mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, and green beans.

Conclusion:

This recipe for Cranberry Pork Chops is a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for a weeknight dinner. The pork chops are juicy and flavorful, and the cranberry sauce adds a sweet and tangy flavor. This dish is sure to please everyone at the table.
