Ingredients

  • 4 pieces bone-in pork chops
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 0.5 teaspoons black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Season both sides of the pork chops with salt and black pepper.

Step 2

Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add the olive oil.

Step 3

Once the oil is hot, add the pork chops and sear for 3-4 minutes on each side, until golden brown. Remove the pork chops and set aside.

Step 4

In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and sauté for 30 seconds, until fragrant.

Step 5

Add the fresh cranberries, orange juice, honey, brown sugar, and dried rosemary to the skillet. Stir well and bring the mixture to a simmer.

Step 6

Cook the cranberry glaze for 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the cranberries burst and the sauce thickens.

Step 7

Return the pork chops to the skillet and spoon the cranberry glaze over them.

Step 8

Reduce the heat to low, cover the skillet, and let the pork chops cook for an additional 6-8 minutes, or until they reach an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C).

Step 9

Remove the pork chops from the skillet and let them rest for 5 minutes before serving.

Step 10

Serve the pork chops warm with the cranberry glaze spooned over the top. Pair with your favorite side dishes for a complete meal.
