Preparation

Step 1

Sprinkle the chops lightly with salt and pepper.
Heat oil in a large skilled over medium-high heat. Add chops and brown on both sides, in batches if necessary. Top with oranges and cranberries, sprinkle with cloves and add broth.
Reduce heat to low; cover and simmer 15 minutes or until juices run clear when meat is pierced.
