Love the cranberry-orange combo! They were nice and juicy. I'll deffinately make them again (and take the leftovers for lunch tomorrow!)

Because my family does not eat pork, I will substitute chops with boneless, skinless chicken breasts! Perhaps a bit of fresh squeezed lemon juice to finish before serving will make it a wonderful, light, bright flavored week night

meal! I most always find that swapping the appropriate cut of chicken in most all quick preparation pork recipes yields terrific results!

These were some of the best pork chops I have ever tried. I did use peaches rather than the oranges; and I will probably use them again since they were good.
