Directions

Prep 10 minCook 25 min
  1. 1

    Finely mince the fresh rosemary, dividing it so about one-third is reserved for seasoning the chops and the rest for the sauce.

  2. 2

    Pat the pork chops dry, then season both sides with salt, pepper, and about one-third of the minced rosemary.

  3. 3

    Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat until it foams and just begins to brown.

  4. 4

    Add the pork chops and cook until well browned and the internal temperature reaches 145°F, about 4–6 minutes per side. Transfer to a warm plate and tent loosely with foil.

  5. 5

    Pour the chicken broth and Port into the skillet and add the remaining rosemary. Bring to a boil, scraping up any browned bits, and reduce slightly, about 3–5 minutes.

  6. 6

    Stir in the cranberry sauce, return to a gentle boil, then reduce to a simmer and cook until thickened and glossy, about 6–8 minutes. Season the sauce with salt and pepper to taste.

  7. 7

    Spoon the cranberry-Port-rosemary sauce over the pork chops and serve immediately.
