Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 bone-in pork chops (1-inch thick)
  • 2 tsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 2 tsp pork seasoning blend (or salt and pepper)
  • 1 cup low-sodium chicken broth
  • ¼ cup balsamic vinegar

Instructions

  1. 1. Season the pork chops with garlic powder and pork seasoning; let sit at room temperature.
  2. 2. Set the Instant Pot to 'Sauté' mode. Add olive oil and sear the pork chops for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown. Remove from pot.
  3. 3. Add minced garlic (if using) to the pot, sauté briefly, then pour in chicken broth and balsamic vinegar, scraping up browned bits.
  4. 4. Return the pork chops to the pot, ensuring they are submerged in liquid. Close the lid and set to 'Manual' high pressure for 10 minutes; allow natural release for 5 minutes before quick-releasing remaining pressure.
  5. 5. Optionally thicken the sauce by switching back to 'Sauté' mode and whisking in cornstarch mixed with cold water.
  6. 6. Serve over mashed potatoes or roasted vegetables with sauce drizzled on top.
