How long to Cook Pork Chops in Instant Pot?

When cooking the pork chops in the instant pot doesn’t take long. Using the instant pot has been a game change for my family. These Honey Garlic Pork Chops only take about 25 minutes to cook at high pressure.

Make sure that you make extra sauce so you have enough to pour over the cooked pork chops.

Variation Ideas:

• Add Vegetables – Add vegetables to the instant pot for a complete meal. We like adding in potatoes, green beans or asparagus.

• Change the Seasoning – You can add in some soy sauce for added flavor. Change the seasoning to what your prefer.

Easy Honey Garlic Pork Chops Tips:

• Pork Chops – When making pork chops in the instant pot, I recommend to use thicker pork chops. Thin pork chops will over cook and get dried out.
• Sear Pork Chops – If you prefer you can sear the pork chops in the instant pot, but it is not necessary.
• Tender Pork – You can do a quick release but a natural release allows the juices to really soak into the pork chops.
• Honey Garlic Sauce – The honey garlic sauce is my favorite part of this meal. Don’t skip the part on thickening the sauce with the cornstarch.
• Meat Thermometer – We recommend using an meat thermometer to make sure you pork chops are cooked. The should have an internal temperature of 145 degrees.

Can I use Frozen Pork Chops in this Recipe?

Yes, you can! In fact, I often forget to take the pork chops out of the freezer and use frozen ones in the instant pot.

We just love our instant pot because you can make even frozen meat in minutes. Frozen pork chops instant pot recipe turns out just as amazing.
