Before coating in flour, I salted and peppered the pork chops. After browning the chops in olive oil/butter, I tossed the cranberry/water/sugar mixture into the pan so as to collect the juices. I cut down on the amount of sugar recommended, i.e. for two chops: 2 cups cranberries, 2/3 c. sugar, 2/3 c. water. I thought my version spectacular!
