Ingredients

• 1/4 teaspoon paprika

Step 1

Combine paprika and pepper; rub over both sides of pork chops. In a large nonstick skillet, brown chops over medium heat.

Combine the orange juice, sugar, cloves and orange peel; pour over pork. Cover and simmer for 18-22 minutes or until a meat thermometer reads 160°. Remove chops and keep warm.

In a small bowl, combine flour and water until smooth; stir into cooking juices. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened. Discard cloves. Serve sauce with pork chops.
