Perfectly tender bone-in pork chops in your Instant Pot with a creamy dairy free mushroom sauce that will be a real crowd pleaser!
Season the pork chops with salt and pepper (see note 1)
Saute both sides of the pork chops in a little oil for just one to two minutes per side using the saute function in your pressure cooker, or use a skillet like I have, then remove the chops and set aside.
Saute the onions and garlic for one minute, then carefully deglaze the bottom of the pot with the chicken broth, then add in the white wine, Dijon mustard, and thyme.
(read note 2) Lock the lid, turn the steam vent to 'sealing' and using the 'manual' or 'pressure cook' button, adjust it to cook for 5 minutes at high pressure, then let it do a natural pressure release for 8-10 minutes. (see note 2)
Release any remaining pressure and open the lid and remove the pork chops (cover with foil) and the thyme sprigs.
Add in the mushrooms into the sauce and turn on the saute function and cook them for three to four minutes.
Mix the coconut milk with the tapioca starch, then add it to the sauce and stir well.
Add back the pork chops into the sauce and simmer for two minutes.
Garnish with chopped parsley and serve hot.
Seasoning - here in the USA your average grocery store pork chop often has a brine solution added to it, which can sometimes make it taste quite salty and in that case it may not need to be seasoned with salt again.
Cook Time - the exact cook time will vary depending on the thickness of your pork chops, I used 3/4 inch thick bone-in pork chops so if yours are different you may need to adjust the timing. Also remember that during the natural pressure release time the chops are still cooking up until you open the lid. I do not recommend using lean boneless chops for this recipe.
Pork Chops - I recommend you use bone in only, in my experience lean boneless chops will become dry in the pressure cooker (unless you cook them forever, and they they are tender but tasteless)
Low Carb - To lower the carbs simply omit the tapioca starch, the sauce will not be as thick though.
