4 Servings
Prep/Total Time: 30 min.

Ingredients

1/3 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon seasoned salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
4 boneless pork loin chops (1/2 inch thick and 4 ounces each)
2 tablespoons Crisco® Pure Olive Oil
1 can (14 ounces) whole-berry cranberry sauce
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
CRANBERRY RICE:
1-3/4 cups chicken broth
2 cups instant brown rice
1/2 cup dried cranberries

Directions

In a large resealable plastic bag, combine the flour, salt, seasoned salt and pepper. Add pork chops, one at a time, and shake to coat. In a large skillet, cook pork in oil over medium-high heat for 4-5 minutes on each side or until juices run clear. In a small bowl, combine cranberry sauce and vinegar; pour over chops. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 10 minutes.
Meanwhile, in a large saucepan, bring broth to a boil. Add rice and cranberries. Return to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 5 minutes. Remove from the heat. Let stand for 5 minutes or until broth is absorbed. Serve pork chops with sauce and rice. Yield: 4 servings.

This was excellent but yes sweet. Very easy. Will definitely make again.

It might be because the cranbery sauce is probably loaded with sugar. For a healthier take, I used half the amount of sauce and replaced dried cranberries with fresh cranberries - tasted amazing!
