Ingredients you need:

  • 1 tablespoon of coconut oil
  • 4-6 boneless pork chops
  • 1 stick of butter (or margarine)
  • 1 package of ranch mix (this is the kind that I like)
  • 1 cup of water

 

How to Instant Pot Boneless Pork Chops recipe:

  1. Place the pork chops in the Instant pot with a tablespoon of coconut oil. Turn on the saute setting and brown on both sides. Make sure all pork chops are browned. You can skip this step but they look prettier when you brown them first.
  2. Place the butter on top and sprinkle the ranch mix packet on top.
  3. Pour water (or chicken broth) over the pork.
  4. Place the lid on and set to sealing.
  5. Push the manual button and set to 5 minutes.
  6. Allow it to naturally release pressure for 5 minutes and then do a quick release to remove the rest of the pressure.
  7. Once cooked, serve.
  8. You can even spoon the buttery sauce over the pork chops and over your veggies when serving.

You can use bone-in pork chops for this recipe.

This recipe is also great for pork chops with the bone in. I would just increase the pressure to 10 minutes. Only 5 more minutes you will have delicious bone in pork chops cooked wonderfully in the Instant pot.

Add veggies and make it a one pot meal.

You can add in any veggies to this recipe and you don’t even have to increase the cooking time. I have thrown in frozen green beans, potatoes, and carrots in there and they all came out packed with flavor and perfectly soft. I would put the pork chops on the bottom and then the veggies on top.

  3. I am so happy I found your site!!! Just got my Instant Pot last week and I am in LOVE! LOL!!! I am making this tonight!!! Can’t wait!!! Can we have dinner at 10:50AM please!!!!

  5. Update to my comment….THESE WERE SOOOOOO good!! Family loved them! I added some baby red potatoes after I browned the chops and put the chops on top of them and then followed the rest of the recipe….they were sooo tender and full of flavor!!!

  6. Excellant recipe! Quick and delicious. I added the red potatoes to it, to make things simple. Thanks for sharing?

  8. Excited to try this tomorrow. Did you use thin or thick cut pork chops?
    Thanks!

  9. THIS recipe was my favorite so far! I did use the chicken broth instead of plain water. After browning the pork, I placed them on the rack to cook. I just wanted to see how the texture of the meat would come out doing it that way (I am still learning), and I was very happy. I made a rice pilaf for a side and I spooned the sauce over that as well. Yum! So fast and easy — I will definitely be making this one again!

  11. I made this last week with essentially frozen, bone in pork chops. It was so quick and easy. I should have doubled the ranch seasoning because I had double the pork chops but it was still a winner with my hubby and son. Thanks!

  14. 1st IP recipe – swapped beef broth for water. Everything else same – added 4 min to cook time b/c chops were “thick” cut. Made gravy from water/cornstarch and liquids remaining from IP after chops cooked. YUM.

  15. We love this recipe. I usually use some corn starch and make a gravy with it and then make some rice. I like it with the potatoes better but my husband really likes it with the rice.

  16. THANK YOU! Many Instant Pot recipes “out there” seem to over cook everything.
    I appreciate the effort you made to get this one just right!
    Taking your lead, I adjusted the pressure cook time to 4 minutes because I had only two 1.5″ thick, 1.38 lbs. boneless center cut pork chops. I made my own dry ranch seasoning to control the salt. I pre-seasoned both sides of the chops with half of the seasoning and let them rest in the refrigerator for about 4 hours. Browned the chops and put them on top of 3 medium sized redskin potatoes halved, 4 full size carrots cut into thirds, a couple stalks of celery and the rest of the ranch. I used water. The resulting broth that developed will go into a copy-cat Zuppa Tuscana from Olive Garden I am making tonight.

  20. Do you put the pork chops in frozen? Sorry for the silly question but I just ordered one and looking for something to make they day it delivers. ?

  21. What is the thickness of the pork chops – the ones I get at COSTCO are really THICK…Thanks! Can’t wait to try this recipe.

  22. Mine are about 1/2 inch think. If yours are thicker I would just add 2 minutes to the pressure just to be safe.

  23. I accidentally got bone in chops and they were about an inch thick so I added About 3 minutes and put carrots under them. They are cooking as we speak and smell amazing. Thanks for the recipe!

  24. Just purchased an Instant Pot a few days ago. Tried your recipe. Love! Substituted chicken broth for water and onion mushroom soup pkt. instead of Ranch. Added baby potatoes cut in half and 1 onion sliced. Yummy! Can’t believe we made a whole meal in less than 15 minutes

  27. Hi, just came across this recipe and it sounds delicious. A little too much butter for my liking though. Any suggestions on making it a little healthier? Thanks!

  28. Would chicken work in this recipe instead? If so, what cooking times would you recommend? Thanks!

  29. While my pork chops were cooking, I boiled some pasta and steamed some green beans. They all finished about the same time, so nothing got cold. I poured the leftover butter sauce over the noodles and just a little on the green beans. My 6-year old had finished her noodles before I even made it to the table with my plate. She agreed the meat was good, too. I was worried that the ranch flavor would be over-powering, but it was not. Super fast, super easy, and 6-year-old-approved!

  30. The pork chops very tender as were the diced potatoes and carrots. I know the water is necessary for the pot reaching pressure but it didn’t seem like a sauce to serve over the chops but was more watery and soup-like. Since I only used two large, thin chops I only used half of a package of the ranch dressing mix. Would a whole package have made it Thicker?

  37. Trying this recipe tonight, with the super thick cut top loin boneless chops from Costco. Going to add 3 minutes to the cook time and some potatoes and carrots … hope it goes well ?.

  47. Hi! For those who did the redskin potatoes, did you add more water and what was the total time? Thanks!

  48. Is the sauce supposed to be like a thicker sauce? I did 5 mins high pressure and 5 min NPR, then manually released, and even let it sit for another 3-4 mins waiting for the rest of the food and its watery… not like a sauce at all…??

  49. I have the Farberware 7 in 1 pressure cooker and I am going to try this in a little while. When you say increase the pressure to 10 minutes, do you mean let it NR for 10 minutes or the cook time to 10 minutes for bone in pork chops? Thanks!

  50. 2 questions what size instant pot are you using? I have an 8qt and the manual says to always use 2 cups liquid but your recipe calls for 1 cup? Also you say to hit manual button but don’t specify what level heat? Thanks

  51. Made this tonight, it was delish! There in a chicken breast as the pork chops I had were small, cut up some potatoe, used vegetable stock. Fabulous, hubby loved it!

  52. I don’t have an Instant Pot just yet. Would you have any suggestions for adapting this to cooking in a Crock Pot?

  54. This was delicious and has become my favorite way to prep pork chops. Even cut them up after and added to my hot and sour soup. Thank you for sharing this!

  55. This was my first Instant pot attempt after Christmas!! Family loved it so much, it’s on the menu tonight. Adding small peeled russet potatoes (bc they were getting old lol) Thank you!

  58. We made this last night. The flavor was amazing. We let the broth cook down so that it made a light gravy and spooned it over both the chops and a southwestern frozen veggie mix. So yummy. Thanks for sharing this recipe!!

  59. Amazing,they were not dry. Although I will decrease the broth or water just a bit. Family loved them.

  61. I made this tonight and it was fantastic. I substituted italian seasoning for the ranch and added potatoes and a bag of frozen veggies. The pork chops were fork tender, the potatoes almost dissolved in your mouth. The seasoning made the veggies superb. My wife told me I had to make this one again.

  64. I’m new to instant pot, what is manual? I don’t have a manual button on my pot. Also, what does quick release mean? I wish I had someone to show me! I’m more of a watch and do person!

  67. I found this recipe to be delightful.
    My wife and I really enjoyed it.
    This was quick and easy on a Wednesday night, pork chops where delicious and very tender.I added frozen vegetables and cut up white potatoes in 1/8 slices.
    I highly recommend this recipe and we’ll be cooking it again.

  72. 4 1/2″ pork chops not as tender as I hoped. Next time I will add two minutes. The flavor is amazing. I chopped up 2 carrots I had and served over rice with sauce.

  78. I’d love to try this with baby potatoes. How many should I add and would I need to cut them up or add time and liquid?

  79. This sounds amazing & will be my first Instant Pot attempt!
    Wondering what I could substitute for coconut oil?

    Thanks!

  84. This was great. I added potatoes and carrots and upped the time to 10 minutes with a 5 min natural release. It was AMAZING. Plus thickened the drippins/liquid for sauce.

  87. This sounds absolutely delicious, and will be making this week. If I add vegetables, should I sprinkle the ranch on top of everything, or put it on the chops before adding veggies?

  89. I put a pack of ham seasoning in my water and the flavor of the pork chops were so good. I am new to the instapot nation but I’m loving the experience

  91. I found the pork chops to be over cooked. It seems brownies g them on top of 5 mins in the IP was just too much. Is there anything I could have done wrong?

  92. I only have 2 bone in pork chops on hand. Would cooking time be the same? Maybe cut the butter in half and only use half a package of ranch?

  94. Thanks for sharing, I made this tonight my hubby says it a keeper. I’m picky when it come to Pork chops these were great! I’ll diffinatly make again. Thanks

  95. Do you place the pork chops on the trivet or anything? Or just place them straight in the pan after browning? Can’t wait to try these tonight!

  96. I’m just curious how long it takes for the instant pot to pressurize for this. That is the one thing that I am having trouble with for all of these wonderful recipes! 10 minute total time isn’t accurate because it doesn’t account for the amount of time for the pot to pressurize. May I please ask that for future recipes that you try to include an estimated pressurizing time? As well as a pressure release time? That would help so much when trying to plan ahead! Thanks so much for all your wonderful recipes! I look forward to trying more of them!

  97. Hi – great recipe – thanks for sharing. However, I do not have an Instant pot – I have Power Pro XLT Electric Pressure Cooker. The one I have (the 10 quart) does not have a saute setting on it but it will brown while it is trying come to temperature with the lid off. I made a few changes/additions – cut the number of pork chops down to 2 as there only me that i cook for and that give me one for another dinner. I also cut the Butter to 2 tablespoons (why anyone is using margarine is beyond me!). To the dry ranch mix I have I added 1 tablespoon of Mrs. Dash original seasoning and 1 tablespoon of garlic powder. I also used Olive oil to brown the chops in as I hate coconut anything. Steamed vegetables and red potatoes on top of the chops. And since my chops were the super thick ones from Costco , I cooked them for 10 minutes and then I did a 10 minute nature release. Everything was fork tender and the sauce was delicious.. Again – thanks for a great recipe.

  99. I made this tonight and after eating it, I am compelled to come on and say thank you, it was amazing! It was my first time cooking pork chops in my instant pot and I am amazed at how tender they came out! I have one leftover and I can’t wait to have it for lunch tomorrow!!!

  100. Hey! So I tried this recipe and the chips turned out really tough. I’m not sure why. I didn’t brown the chops so they didn’t have extra cook time. I also added potatoes and since I added so many, I used a 1/2 cup more of broth than called for. I used the same ingredients and set it to 5 minutes. The only thing I did differently is let it go a couple minutes longer during the natural pressure release thing. Is that maybe why?

    Otherwise the flavor was freaking incredible! I think I’d use at least half a second pack of ranch mix, but man. This was delicious.

  101. This was delicious….. I used Lipton onion soup mix instead of ranch, 2 TBL spoon butter, 4 bone in pork chops, 14 minutes. Natural release. Thank you. I will try with Italian seasoning next time. Browning ahead of time was perfect. Meat just fell off the bone. Now have leftovers for another meal.

  102. I was wondering , what is the best coconut oil to use ? I’m new to using it , so i just wanted to know so i can us it for different things.

  103. If I wanted to add some potatoes, what kind would you recommend, and do I need to change the time? Also, would fresh veggies work? I’m new to IP! Slowly learning!

  104. So good that we just had it 2 nights in a row! FYI, these are fan-tab-ulous with asparagus or roasted Brussel Sprouts. Great recipe. (Thickened gravy with a cornstarch slurry and a tablespoon or so of milk.)

  105. This was delicious and loved by my kids and husband. I only used half a stick of butter and it provided plenty of flavor and sauce to pour over the meat.

  106. Going to make this tonight, but have two frozen chops. Do you think 10 minutes would be okay or should I do 9 since there are only two? And do I brown it first? I know it’d take longer since it’s frozen. Thank you! Super excited!

  107. Tried this with FROZEN solid pork chops tonight (6 chops) – 12 minutes….put frozen green beans on top. The beans were delicious (making them this way from now on)…..chops turned out great from frozen….may reduce to 10 minutes next time. Delicious dinner! Everyone loved it. Served with sweet potatoes.

  108. This was my first attempt at using my Instant Pot. This was a delicious, easy to make dish. I had 2 thick, boneless chops and they came out so tender. Next time I will add some veggies, because I’ll bet that’s good. Quick-Easy-Scrumptious

    Since I had way too much sauce because of only having 3 chops, I am going to freeze the leftover in an ice cube tray and use to season veggies at other times.

  109. Super easy and great recipe…Thanks Carrie for helping me get started with using my InstaPot!!

  110. The flavor was magnificent! They were dry though =( Should I have done 5 min. on low?

  111. I made these tonight.. They were amazing. I used olive oil.. used salt, pepper, and seasoning salt on pork chops. I Loved the sauce but i used cornstarch and water to thicken it up a bit.. amazing!! Cant wait to share your recipe!

  112. Where are you supposed to put the carrots or potatoes underneath or on top of the meat?

  113. I love this recipe and it’s so easy to make it keto friendly. I use my favourite meat rub (Scarborough Fair from the Silk Road), and then saute the chops in buttery flavour coconut oil. Once browned, I add sugar free chicken broth and follow the directions as written. Chops are moist and flavourful amd go so nicely with roasted asparagus.

  114. I’m confused, I have a mini pot, and it doesn’t have a manual button, can you help me out. I did make this once already, and it was delicious just wondering about the manual button…

  116. Made this tonight and loved it. Esp loved how quick and easy it was to do. Had all the ingredients already. And it tastes great. Thanks for sharing! ????

  117. Love this recipe! My daughter and I made it together the first time. Today I made it to surprise her when she gets home. We added fresh cut green beans, red potatoes, an onion, green pepper, red pepper, and 2 cups of chicken broth. Turned out perfect both times.

  118. I used 1/2 stick of butter. More than enough. Chops were very tender. Wife is GF, so ranch dressing was a perfect choice.

  119. I used your recipe tonight for me though I put the water or broth in first for when you pour it over the chops it washes off the ranch flavor plus I cut the stick of butter in 4 equal parts and put each piece on top of individual pork chops
    It was delicious!

  121. Delicious pork chops! We added sliced carrots. I have never liked cooked carrots until now. Amazing! Next time I’m trying fresh green beans.

  123. Family seemed to like this (I’m never sure they are being honest!) It was a bit more coconuty than I think we’d like but overall not bad. We used the sauce for basmati rice and I added carrots. Will make this again and try the Italian seasoning variation I saw in comments. 🙂

  124. You might want to adjust your cooking time a bit. Maybe increase it slightly and see if it turns out better for you. thanks so much

  127. Generally in an instant pot, one cup of liquid is the minimum to bring it to pressure.

  128. Just made this recipe. It was amazing. My very picky 7 yr old loved his pork chops. I really think 1/2 stick of butter would suffice. Served with white rice and asparagus (not cooked in IP)

  129. So mine was really watery and didn’t have a ton of flavor. I added red potatoes as some people had mentioned. Is that why??

  131. This recipe worked well for my family! There was a LOT of butter left over. I know you mentioned tossing in red potatoes. What about putting potatoes in a pot on top of the chops and using the excess butter “juice” to mash them? I’m a newbie so I’m not sure if that would work. If i cut the potato pieces small enough, would they cook ok in the suggested time? Thanks for your help and a yummy recipe!

  133. Our meal came out so good! I did it with baby carrots and red potatoes. Everything was so moist and soft. I tried it with a half stick of butter to save on calories and it worked well 🙂 I’m considering using a second packet of ranch to give more flavor because I used all those veggies as well. What do you think? With the one packet, we just added extra spices including Cajun! We love our spicy food lol Also, does the water have to be poured last on top of the pork and veggies, or can I put the water first at the bottom? I ask this because I feel like the seasonings would stick to the veggies better without “washing” it off. Wondering if this would flavor it even more. Or is there a reason you do the water last? TIA!

  134. MY family loves these. I’m lazy and don’t Brown the chops. Also I fill up my pot with potatoes then use the rack that came with my instantpot and put the pork chops on that.
    Yum. No leftovers.

  135. OMG this was super simple and absolutely FANTASTIC!!! I only had 3/4 stick of butter and used chicken broth instead of water. When the chops were done cooking I added in some potato starch to thicken and make a gravy. I served the chops with IP spinach and asparagus risotto. Next time I make this (and it will be soon) I think I’m gonna flavor the gravy like a piccatta sauce and add in some lemon juice and capers. So many possibilities with this simple recipe. I never knew pork chops could be so tender and tasty. Definitely a keeper!! Thanks for sharing.

  138. Sooooo i got my instapot for christmas and im in love. Tried this recipe with a couple variations…. First i substituted a mesquite marinade/ slow cooker seasoning package for the ranch and my chops were extra thick so i added 2 min to cooking time it came out perfect next time im going with some red pot. and a tomato basil season packet hopefully it’ll be just as delish. Thanks for the great recipe.

  139. Cooked as the recipe states. Added 2 minutes because my porkchops (fairly thin) were frozen when I started. When done, I took the pork chops out of the IP, then turned it on to Saute. I mixed a bit of flour into the liquid mixture to thicken it up. We then used that as a “gravy/coating” on the pork chops and some pasta. Delicious!

  140. Holy cow!! This wasso A-MAZING!!! After reading the comments, I also used chicken broth in place of water but only used 1/2cup. In addition, I added carrots and after the pressure released, I added corn starch and made a carrot gravy. So incredibly good and unbelievably easy. Thank you so much for posting and giving me another reason to love my IP!! ??

  141. Have made this twice, once w/potatoes and the other w/out. Both times with bone in chops. The best,tender pork chops I have ever cooked. Need to be careful in removing as they can fall off of the bone. I prefer to cook w/out the potatoes as they were almost too done, cooked 8 min, could have been 6-7 min perhaps. *5 min cooking time the first time, natural release- perfect!!!

  142. Very good meal. I added carrots and onion and potatoes and frozen green beans. Next time I will only use 1/3 of a stick of butter though.

  143. how long does your IP take to get pressurized? that might be a factor when doing the NR. i did 3 1-inch pork chops, with sweet potatoes, half stick of butter, and 1 cup of chicken broth. i let it NR for 4 minutes and immediately took out the pork. they were medium-well and after sitting for a few minutes, they were well-done and tough. i’m in san francisco so altitude shouldn’t be a factor.

  144. Joey – It takes my instant pot about 5 minutes to pressurize. It might just have been due to the size of the pork chop. Maybe try to do a quick release next time to see if they come out better. Thank you.

  145. Made these today and they are soo yummy – they just melt in your mouth! I made mashed potatoes on the side and topped both the pork chops and mashed potatoes with the butter sauce. YUM. Husband said it’s one of the best things Ive made for him. Will definitely be making this again.

  147. This was the first meal I made with my new Instant Pot and I’m blown away. I threw some potatoes on top and everything came out perfectly. The pork chops were actually tender and moist! It does need a thicker gravy, so I set it back on simmer and whisked in some cornstarch. Perfection! Thank you so much!

  148. I made this a couple nights ago and it was delicious. I had to make some dietary changes due to sodium and sat fat.
    Changes to your recipe:
    *lightly sprinkled ranch seasoning over chops an hour ahead then again sprinkled each lightly after browning (used about a half pouch of seasoning total)
    *only used a small pad of butter on top of each of four half inch boneless chops
    * after browning chops placed trivet over water, chops on top
    * then placed raised rack over the chops with slightly precooked (microwave) cubed sweet potato with several pads of butter.
