Ingredients

  • 3 Tablespoons Dijon Mustard
  • ½ cup Real Maple Syrup, divided in half
  • ¼ teaspoon Pepper
  • 4 Pork Chops, 1/2" to 3/4" thick, bone-in
  • 2 Tablespoons Butter
  • ½ cup Apple Juice or Cider
  • ¾ cup Pecan Halves
  • 1 Tablespoon Corn Starch

Instructions

  • Turn Pot on to Sauté function. Let warm up while you prepare the chops.
  • In a shallow mixing bowl, mix together dijon, half of the maple syrup (¼ cup), and the pepper. Coat the pork chops with mixture and set aside (reserve the leftover mustard sauce).
  • When the display on the pot reads Hot, add the butter and coat the bottom of the pot. Add 2 of the pork chops and cook for 2 minutes per side. Repeat with remaining 2 chops. Remove to a plate.
  • Add the apple juice to the pot and use a wooden spoon or other heat proof utensil to scrape the bottom of the pot to get up all of the brown bits.
  • Cancel the Sauté mode. Add the pork chops back in to the pot. Put the lid on and lock in place. Set the steam release knob to the Sealing position.
  • Press Pressure Cook/Manual, and use the + or - button (or dial) to choose 7 minutes (for thinner chops) or 9 minutes (for thicker chops).
  • When cooking time ends, let the pot sit undisturbed for 8 minutes (natural release). Then Manually release the remaining pressure by turning the steam release knob to Venting.
  • When the pin in the lid drops down, open the lid and remove the pork chops to a plate.
  • Add the reserved mustard sauce, maple syrup, and pecan halves, and turn the Sauté function back on.
  • Use a measuring cup to scoop out some of the sauce from the pot. Add the corn starch to it and use a fork to gently dissolve the corn starch. Pour the corn starch slurry into the pot and stir until it thickens. Turn off the pressure cooker.
  • Serve the pork chops smothered in the maple mustard sauce.
