Cranberry Pork Chops

serves 4

4 pork chops
3 carrots, sliced into 1-inch pieces
1 can cranberries
1 cup chicken or beef broth
1/2 cup red wine
1 tbsp balsamic vinegar, flavored or plain
1/2 cup dried cranberries
2 onions, sliced (or 8 oz pearl onions)
8 oz mushrooms, sliced
bouquet garni


Brown pork chops in a skillet over medium heat. Place carrots in crock pot. Top with pork and all remaining ingredients except mushrooms. Cook for 4-6 hours on low. Add mushrooms and continue cooking on high for 1 hour. Remove lid to reduce liquid or drain and make gravy.

--------------------------------

Still working on this one...the pork was a little tough last time I did this, probably because I forgot to brown it before cooking it. This is a conglomeration of several recipes, so I'll be tweaking as I return to it. This recipe is great with chicken and beef as well.
