Instant Pot Pork Chops with Mushroom Gravy are very tasty, with a rich mushroom gravy and tender pork chops. I like to serve them on mashed potatoes, or over rice. You can make these pressure cooker pork chops with mushroom gravy on a busy weeknight, or whenever you have the craving for great tasting, tender pork chops.
Instant Pot Pork Chops with Mushroom Gravy
Pork chops are a favorite family dinner to make. I love pork with apples, as in my Autumn Apple Pork Chops, and I love them with a rich mushroom gravy, like these!
The first step to good Instant Pot Pork Chops with Mushroom Gravy is to begin by tenderizing the chops. It's as simple as pressing a multi-blade tenderizer a few times into the meat. Or, just use the back of a large knife, and hit the meat a few times all over. Not too much though. Then season and cook.
Here are the steps to make Instant Pot Pork Chops with Mushroom Gravy (updated 6/18/18):
After cooking, thicken the gravy and stir in the sour cream.
If you use thin pork chops, you will want to reduce the pressure cook time, and likewise, if you have very thick chops, you will want to add a couple minutes.
My family loves these Instant Pot Pork Chops with Mushroom Gravy because they come out tender, and the gravy is so rich and delicious! Mashed Potatoes are the favorite side dish as the gravy is so good on them, too. Rice is also good.

Instant Pot Pork Chops in Mushroom Gravy are tender and delicious!
- 4-6 Pork Chops
- 3 Tbsp Oil
- 8 oz Mushrooms, sliced
- 1 cup Low Sodium Chicken Broth (divided) or replace ¼ cup of the broth with dry cooking sherry
- 1 small Onion, diced
- 3 cloves Garlic minced or pressed
- 2 tsp Worcestershire Sauce
- 1 tsp Soy Sauce, low sodium
- ½ tsp Salt
- ½ tsp Pepper
- 1 can Cream of Mushroom Soup
- ¼ cup Flour
- ½ cup Sour Cream (or Greek yogurt)
-
Tenderize the pork chops by using a meat tenderizer with multiple blades, or by hitting them several times with the back side of a large knife.
-
Turn on the pot's sauté setting to the highest heat level (More on an IP). When the pot is hot, add the oil.
-
Brown the pork chops on both sides, in two batches. Then set browned chops on a plate.
-
Add the mushrooms to the pot and cook a couple of minutes. Then add ¼ cup of the chicken broth (or cooking sherry, if using) and deglaze the pot, using a wooden spoon to scrape up the browned bits from the bottom of the pot.
-
Add the onion and cook for 5 minutes, until it starts to turn translucent.
-
Add in the garlic and cook for 1 minute.
-
Add soy sauce and Worcestershire sauce, and the remaining ¾ cup chicken broth. Stir well.
-
Add salt & pepper.
-
Place the pork chops back in the pot and turn off the Sauté setting.
-
Pour the cream of mushroom soup on top but do not stir. Place the lid on the pot and set the steam release knob to the Sealing position.
-
Press the Pressure Cook button or dial and then the + or - button or dial to select 10 minutes (for about 1 ½" thick) or (7 or 8 minutes for smaller, thinner chops, 12 minutes for thicker chops)
-
When the cooking cycle has finished, let the pot sit undisturbed for 8 minutes (8 minute Natural Release).
-
Remove the chops to a dish and spoon some of the gravy over them to keep them moist.
-
Turn the Sauté setting on and mix the flour with some of the hot liquid in a mug. Then pour the mixture into the pot and stir to thicken. Stir a little water into the gravy if it is too thick.
-
Turn off the Sauté setting.
-
Stir in the sour cream.
-
Serve the pork chops with some of the mushroom gravy over them. Excellent with mashed potatoes or rice.

I made these tonight with 5 chops ob the thick side. I added extra chicken broth onions and mushrooms. Baked zucchinis and red potatoes. Cant wait to try it!
Krista Manley
I made this tonight and the pork chops were awesome. The gravy wasn't good. I should have used my better judgement that 1/3 cup flour was way too much flour. The recipe calls for 1 cup chicken broth which isn't enough broth for 1/3 cup flour. I will differently make this again but will modify the flour.
Sandy
There was a typo and it should have been 1/4 cup. Also, you can add some liquid in at the end to thin it, if needed. Thank you for your review.
Michelle
Just made this for dinner and it was delish! Followed recipe exactly except that I used shiitake mushrooms and added a tad more worchestshire sauce and 1 tsp of liquid smoke. Would def make this again!

Made these last night. They were delicious I always over cook pork chops and these came out perfect. The gravy was delicious. I left out mushrooms because no one else in family likes them. Ate the leftovers for lunch today and still tasted great. Thanks for the recipe.
Brittany
How could this be altered to use mushroom soup mix instead of cream of mushroom? How much broth?
Sandy
If the mix calls for 4 cups total liquid, I would cut that in half, maybe more. I have never used a mushroom soup mix, but the idea is that you want to make it concentrated.

I'm going to make this tonight. I'll use honeycrisp apples, as that's what I have. If it turns out as good as it sounds, I'll try sweet potatoes next time as we all love them with pork.
Thanks for the recipe.
Sandy
Sounds great!
Wanda
Made tonight and will definitely make again per my husband’s request. I followed the directions, but cooked them on top of the stove in a pan with higher sides. My chops were about an inch thick and I let them simmer in the gravy with mushroom soup on top for about 20 minutes and they turned out perfect. Served jasmine rice with it and a veggie.
Sandy
That's great, Wanda!
