This was very yummy! I was looking for a recipe to use up some peach preserves I had, and this did just the trick! My husband and I declared this one a keeper!

Delicious! I used fresh peaches and water instead of the reserved peach juice. Really enjoyed the sauce over the rice. I used pork rib chops and cooked them for less time than recommended.
