Recipe instruction
  • 2 pounds bone in pork chops ¾" or thicker
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 small onion diced
  • 3 cups mushrooms brown or white, sliced
  • 1 ¼ cup beef broth divided
  • 1 can cream of mushroom soup condensed
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley
  • 2 tablespoons cornstarch

  • Season pork chops with garlic powder, salt and pepper.

  • Turn Instant Pot on to SAUTEE. Add oil.

  • Brown pork chops in batches, about 2 minutes per side. Remove from Instant Pot and set aside.

  • Add 1 cup broth to the Instant Pot and scrape any brown bits from the bottom of the pot. (Deglaze well to avoid getting a burn notice).

  • In order, add sliced mushrooms, chopped onion, browned pork chops. Top with mushroom soup and parsley.

  • Seal the lid and turn the Instant Pot to HIGH pressure for 15 minutes (it will take about 15 minutes to reach pressure).

  • Once done, allow the Instant Pot to naturally release for 10 minutes. Release any remaining pressure.

  • Remove pork chops from the gravy and set aside.

  • Combine remaining broth and cornstarch in a small bowl. Turn the Instant Pot on to SAUTEE to bring gravy to a boil. Add cornstarch mixture a little bit at a time to reach desired consistency.

  • Serve pork chops over mashed potatoes with gravy.
