- If you don't have a meat thermometer, you can cook the pork chops until they are no longer pink in the center. However, be careful not to overcook them, as they will become tough.
- To add more flavor to the pork chops, you can marinate them in the orange-cranberry sauce for at least 30 minutes before cooking.
