Pork Medallions With Mandarin Oranges & Cranberries image

I like this recipe for the flavours of orange and cranberries I like this recipe for the flavours of orange,cranberries and spices. Also this serves a large quantity or it can be reduced to serve less. Nice for a dinner party. Cook time is approx. as it depends on how long it takes to reduce the sauce.

My daughter demonstrated this recipe at the state fair and received lots of compliments. Since she is involved in both the food projects and the swine projects, she took great pleasure in promoting Minnesota pork.
