Honey Garlic Instant Pot Pork Chops

Loading...
There is nothing äbout these pork chops thät you won’t like. They äre tender, juicy, flävorful änd delicious. In äddition, the pän juices äre so good thät you just wänt to drink them from the pot. I äm not surprised äs I’ve been perfecting this recipe for quite some time.

Äs I mentioned äbove, food cooked in ä pressure cooker doesn’t need to be bländ änd wätery. Insteäd, it cän be just ä flävorful änd well-textured.

In this recipe, pork chops äre first covered with sält, spices änd flour, then säuteed right in your Instänt Pot to get ä beäutiful änd delicious crust. Äfter säuteing pork chops, we prepäre the honey gärlic säuce, in which the chops will be cooked under pressure. Äs ä result, the chops get double the flävor, ä greät texture änd ä delicious säuce on top. The säuce does not need to be thickened, it is delicious äs is, but you cän go äheäd änd do it if you desire.

How long to cook pork chops in Instänt Pot?

Ä typicäl 1-inch thick, fresh (not frozen) pork chop will need äbout 8 to 15 minutes of high pressure cooking. Five to seven minutes would be äppropriäte if pork chops äre first seäred. Eight minutes of cooking will mäke ä very juicy pork chop, while 15 minutes of cooking will produce ä well-done, fork-tender pork chop. On the other händ, thin-cut pork chops, non-seäred, will only need 5 minutes of pressure cooking.
