Ingredients
- 2 tbsp olive oil divided
- 2 lbs pork chops or boneless, bone-in
- 1 tsp onion powder
- salt to taste
- 1 cup chicken broth
- 1 cup ketchup
- 2 tsp dried mustard
- 2 tsp chili powder
- 4 tbsp brown sugar
- 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tbsp white wine vinegar
- 1/2 cup yellow onion finely diced
- 2 cloves garlic
- 1/2 cup Cooking liquid reserved
Instructions
- Preheat instant pot on the BROWN/SAUTE function. Spray entire pot with nonstick cooking spray. Add olive oil to the bottom of the pot. Sprinkle both sides of pork chops with onion powder and salt.
- Add enough pork chops to cover the bottom of the instant pot and cook 2-3 minutes per side or until browned. Remove browned pork chops and add remaining pork chops to brown.
- Replace all browned pork chops to the pot and add chicken broth. Press "OFF" and then add the lid to the instant pot and turn to lock. Cook 5 minutes on the "PRESSURE COOKER" setting. (If you are using boneless chops, reduce this to 3 minutes.)
- While the pork chops are cooking, in a small bowl or liquid measuring cup, whisk ingredients together for the sauce: ketchup, brown sugar, vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, chili powder and dried mustard.
- Once pork chops are done cooking, quick release pressure and open. Remove pork chops and reserve 1/2 cup cooking liquid. Discard remaining cooking liquid. Return instant pot back to BROWN/SAUTE function and add other 1 tablespoon olive oil. Saute onion and garlic 2 minutes or until softened and fragrant. Pour in the sauce and the reserved cooking liquid. Simmer 2 minutes, then add pork chops back in. After another 2-3 minutes, pork chops should be well glazed and sauce should have thickened slightly. Serve with rice.
