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.

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!

Made for Recipe Swap #21 Aus/NZ. We really enjoyed these and liked the combination of soy sauce and peaches. Served with recipe #264577. Thanks for posting this Seasoned Cook!

These were pretty good and they were easy to make. I used boneless center cut chops, and they dried out a bit even though I cooked them for less than the alotted time. I bet this would be much better with bone in chops.

Very tasty pork chops! I used my own frozen peaches, which made their own juice while defrosting, rather than syrup, so it worked very well. Also had no peach or apricot preserves so used a home made canned chutney which also worked very well, with Splenda brown sugar mix Sorry for the changes, we loved the result which I feel was close to the intention of your recipe. Thanks for posting, I would make it again!
