Prep Time 10 minutes
Cook Time 25 minutes
Additional Time 15 minutes
Total Time 50 minutes

Ingredients

  • 4 (6-ounce) bone-in pork loin chops, about 3/4-inch thick
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • ½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon canola oil
  • 1 medium onion, thinly sliced
  • 2 teaspoons minced garlic
  • 1 ½ cups chicken broth, divided
  • ¼ cup apple butter
  • 1/4 cup cornstarch

Instructions

  1. Pat the pork chops dry with paper towels and season both sides with salt and pepper.
  2. Set the Instant Pot to the SAUTE function. Warm the oil and add the pork chops. Brown on each side, about 2 minutes. Remove the pork chops to a plate.
  3. Add the onions and garlic to the pot and cook a couple of minutes, until softened.
  4. Pour 1 cup of the chicken broth to the Instant Pot and deglaze the pan, scraping away any brown bits from the bottom.
  5. Return the pork chops to the pot and spread a spoonful of apple butter on top of each one.
  6. Seal the lid and set the Instant Pot to HIGH pressure for 15 minutes. It will take 15 minutes for the Instant Pot to come to pressure. Naturally release for 10 minutes, then release any remaining pressure.
  7. In a small bowl, whisk the cornstarch into the remaining ½ cup of chicken broth. Remove the pork chops to a platter and set the Instant Pot to SAUTE. Once the mixture comes to a boil, slowly pour in the cornstarch mixture, stirring constantly until the gravy reaches the desired thickness.
  8. Serve the pork chops with the apple gravy.
