This pork chop recipe has been a family favorite for years. But initially, I made it in the oven and it called for my pork chops to be marinated overnight and a 1 hour bake in the oven. That’s great for me on Sundays but for weeknights, that just wasn’t going to happen.
So I modified this family favorite recipe to my Instant Pot and I love it even more. Same great flavor, but less time and effort.
Can you cook pork chops in a pressure cooker?
This was my first question I had when trying to convert this recipe. I had done my research initially, googling the above question but found mixed results among recipes. I realized a few things:
- Thick cut pork chops cooked better in the Instant Pot. Thin chops tended to overcook and become dry or rubbery. I always use thick cut boneless pork chops for this recipe. For thinner chops, reduce the cook time.
- Speaking of cook time, I found that an 8 minute pressure cooktime, 10 minute natural release for the perfect thick boneless pork chops. I initially tried a 10 minute cook time, and my pork chops were dry and overcooked. If you cook the meat too long, you risk having overcooked pork chops. I found 8 minutes was long enough for the pork chops to fully cook and stay moist.
- A 10 minute natural release worked best. A quick release is a no-no when cooking most meats in the instant pot. I let the pressure cooker naturally release for 10 minutes, then I release the remaining pressure.
How to make this pork chop recipe in your Instant Pot?
First, wash and dry your thick cut pork chops. Season both sides with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Press Sauté and select the "More" setting on your Instant Pot and wait for the display to say "Hot." Then add your oil, then your chops. Sear over high heat for about 3 minutes each side, until browned.
Once pork chops are seared, remove them and set aside. Then add butter to the Instant Pot and allow it to melt. Add onions, bell peppers, garlic and stir with a wooden spoon until the onions and peppers have softened, about 2-3 minutes.
Add chicken broth and use a wooden spoon to deglaze the Instant Pot, ensuring that all the brown bits have been removed from the bottom. Then stir in thyme, hot sauce, steak sauce, Worcestershire sauce, and ketchup. Place pork chops back in Instant Pot on top of the liquid.
Press "Cancel" on Instant Pot and cover with Instant Pot Pressure Cooker cover. Make sure the valve on the top of the Instant Pot is set to "Sealing." Then cook on High Pressure for 8 minutes. After the cooktime, allow the pressure cooker to naturally release for 10 minutes, then quick release the remaining pressure.
Once all the pressure is released, open lid and remove cooked pork chops.
Press"Cancel" on the Instant Pot and then select sauté. In a seperate bowl, whisk 2 tablespoon corn starch and 2 tablespoon water to create a corn starch slurry. Once the liquid in the instant Pot begins to bubble, add in your corn starch slurry to thicken the sauce. Allow it to boil for about one minute more. Press "Cancel" on your Instant Pot.
Serve pork chops covered with gravy. These are perfect with rice and vegetables. Enjoy 🙂

I will sometimes add an additional ½ teaspoon salt to the gravy after it's done pressure cooking. The amount of salt in the recipe will depend on the saltiness of the chicken broth you use.

I love to travel. My hope is to one day travel around the world and eat the authentic cuisine of every single country I visit. Until I’m able to do that….I’ll bring the world into my kitchen.
This Moroccan Spiced Soup has become a regular in our kitchen. It’s so easy and delicious that it has joined a few other soups that make a regular appearance, like this jerk chicken soup and this sausage and lentil soup recipe.
What is Moroccan Soup?
Moroccan Soup, also known as Harira, is made with either chickpeas and/or lentils, tomatoes, and meat. A lot of recipes you will find will leave the meat out.
I’m a lover of meat and discovered that a traditional Moroccan Spice Soup will often contain lamb. So I made sure my soup recipe had it.
You should be able to find lamb at your local grocer. I usually buy a leg of lamb and chop it into 1 inch pieces. I have the butcher remove the bone.
The addition of lamb is perfect for this pressure cooker soup because each bite of lamb literally melts in your mouth. That's why the pressure cooker is amazing. It's perfect for cooking lamb and goat and getting them perfectly tender.
How to make Moroccan Spiced Soup in your Pressure Cooker
I make this soup (and almost all soups) in my Instant Pot Electric Pressure Cooker.
First, set your pressure cooker to the high sauté setting and wait for your display to say “Hot.” Once it does, add your oil and then your chopped lamb meat. You’ll want to brown the meat for 4-5 minutes.
Next, you’ll want to add your onions and garlic and sauté until your onions have softened a bit, about 3 minutes. The moisture from the onion should provide enough liquid to get some of those brown bits at the bottom of the Instant Pot up as well.
Removing those brown bits from the bottom of your Instant Pot is extremely important. It should always be done after browning meats to allow you food to pressure cook properly. I recommend using a wooden spoon for this.
Then add your spices and stir for about 1 minute.
Next, add your chicken broth. Once you add your chicken broth, grab your wooden spoon and deglaze once more, making sure that all brown bits are removed from the bottom of the pot.
Then you'll add your drained chickpeas and diced tomatoes. Do not stir at this time. Rumor is that tomatos and tomatoes based producs could cause some Instant Pots to give off that dreaded burn signal. A way to avoid that is to layer tomato products on top and stir once the pressure cook cycle is complete.
Cover and cook on high pressure for 20 minutes. It will take your pressure cooker about 10-15 minutes to reach pressure. Once the cook cycle is complete, allow the moroccan spiced soup to natural release for 10 minutes, then you may release the rest of the pressure.
Once all your pressure is released, open the lid and smell the aroma...it's delightful. Stir in your spinach until all the spinach is fully submerged in the soup.
Enjoy 🙂

I love making breakfast recipes in my Instant Pot Pressure Cooker. From this egg bite recipe, to pumpkin oatmeal, to even bread pudding.
One of my favorite items to eat for breakfast is a good bowl of southern style creamy grits. I like my grits salty and cheesy and served with a side of bacon. I found that the Pressure Cooker was the perfect vessel to make grits.
Wait, pressure cooked grits? Yes, it seems bizarre but it works beautifully. You can check out my Ninja Foodi Fish and Grits where I also make grits in a pressure cooker.
How to make Grits in a Pressure Cooker
Making grits in your pressure cooker is easy as pie and always comes out smooth and creamy. I tend to follow three common rules when making grits in my Pressure Cooker:
- Always use stone ground grits. They take a little longer to cook but they are creamy and produce the right texture for good Southern Style grits. I don’t use quick cooking grits as I don’t like the texture of them at all.
- Remeber 1:3:1. Use 1 part grits, 3 parts water or broth, and 1 part heavy cream to the pressure cooker cycle.
- Allow grits to cool for at least 5 minutes once done pressure cooking. This will allow your grits to thicken up to a nice consistency.
How to make Jalapeño Cheddar Grits in your Instant Pot Pressure Cooker
First, I prepare my ingredients by doing what's called mise en place. I grab a block of sharp cheddar cheese and I shred it, then set aside.
I tend to buy block cheese rather than pre-grated cheese for all my recipes because I find it melts a little better. However, pre-grated sharp cheddar cheese will work fine in this recipe.
Then prepare your jalapeños by removing the seeds and white membranes and chopping it. The spices of a pepper live in the seeds and the white membrane, removing them will remove the extra spice.
Add chopped bacon to your Instant pot insert. Then turn your Instant Pot sauté function on the "Normal" setting by pressing the "Sauté" button a few times.
Bacon cooks best when it's added to a cold pan and is cooked over a low temperature. I usually crank that Sauté function up to the highest setting but that would actually result in burnt bacon. So for this recipe, reduce the the sauté function.
You can reduce the Sauté function on your Instant Pot by pressing the Sauté button a few times.
Once your bacon is cooked and crispy, which takes about 15 minutes, remove it and place it on a paper towel to drain. Remove the excess grease from the Instant Pot, leavung about 2 tablespoon in the pot.
Add jalapeño and sauté for about two minutes.
Add stone ground grits, and stir for about 10 seconds. Add water and use a wooden spoon to get up any brown bacon bits on the bottom of the pot. Then stir in your heavy cream and a little salt.
Cover and cook on high pressure for 10 minutes, allow to natural release for 10 minutes, the manually release any remaining pressure.
Open lid and add cheddar cheese and cream cheese and stir until incorporated.
Your grits will look a bit watery initially. Allow them to cool for about 5 minutes before serving.
Oh, don't forget those bacon pieces....place them on top of your grits and Enjoy 🙂
If you don't want to make a huge batch of grits, pot in pot works fine for this recipe. Just cut it in half and use a smaller bowl with a trivet.
You could also store this recipe in your refrigerator and reheat it the next day. I put mine in the microwave for about 1-1:30 minutes.

Notes
Notes for Jalapeño Cheddar Grits
- Block cheese that is grated by hand works best.
- When cutting jalapeño, remove the seeds and white mebrane. The spice lives there. You can leave a few seeds if you want your grits spicy but I use the jalapeño for flavor, not for the added spice.
- I know there is a ton of different info on whether you can add heavy cream to a pressure cooker during the pressure cooker cycle. That will always depend on the recipe and the fat content of your cream. I recommend full fat heavy cream. The cream in this recipe will not curdle in your pot.
- You can skip the bacon step and use 2 tablespoon of butter if you like.

Anyone that knows me knows that I’m a summer girl and warm weather is my thing. But I’ll have to deal with the cold weather North Carolina brings and prepare to the best of my ability. That’s where this delicious Hot Holiday Punch comes to the rescue.
It’s a nice refreshing break from the usual winter drinks of hot chocolate and hot tea. It reminds me of a warm version of my Jamaican Rum Punch recipe, only with a nice cinnamon kick.
Oh, and this recipe is non-alcoholic although a nice white rum can be added if you like (we love it and add it quite often).
This recipe is perfect for a party or anytime the family wants a nice hot mug of holiday punch.
How do you make Hot Holiday Punch?
I like to cook my Hot Holiday Punch nice and slow over a period of two hours. I use my Instant Pot on the Slow Cooker mode to make this Holiday Punch, but any slow cooker would do.
Add equal parts cranberry juice and unsweetened pineapple juice to the cooker. I use 4 cups of each in this recipe. Then add ½ cup of cinnamon flavored candy (I use Red Hots). and 3 cinnamon sticks. Stir and cover.
If using an Instant Pot, you will need a glass cover to use the slow cook function. Also, you will need to set the 2 hour function on the “More” setting to get it heated though after 2 hours.
For a traditional slow cooker, you’ll need to use the low setting for 2 hours.
Can I pressure cook this Hot Holiday Punch?
You can but for best results, go on and just put it on slow cook. I tried myself to speed up the magic of this punch by pressure cooking first but the flavors just didn’t pop as much as they did when it was cooked low and slow.
Can I make this punch ahead of time?
Yes. I put any leftovers in a mason jar and reheat when I need a midweek drink.
I hope you like this Holiday Punch Recipe as much as we do. Until next time.

It’s cold outside but I still get to make air fryer steak kebabs without using an outdoor grill. Thanks to my Air Fryer, I get to have kebabs year round.
My favorite type of kebab are these steak kebabs. Steak in the air fryer is an all time favorite of mine so steak kebabs just seemed appropriate.
Can you make steak in an Air Fryer?
Yes, yes, and yes. This Perfect Air Fryer Steak recipe is one of our favorite ways to prepare steak. Following the same methods I used in that recipe, I was able to prepare perfect steak kebabs/skewers.
How to make steak kebabs/skewers in an Air Fryer?
First, you'll start by marinating your steak. I use sirloin steak that has been cut into 1 inch cubes. I try my hardest to make sure all the steak is about the same size so it cooks evenly.
Then you will prepare your vegetables by chopping your onions, peppers, and cleaning those super dirty mushrooms. I then toss them in a bowl with some olive oil and I sprinkle a little bit of salt and fresh cracked black pepper over them.
Grab your skewers and start placing your kebabs on. I use metal skewers that came with this air fryer kit. They are reusable and fit right inside my Air Fryer. You could use wooden skewers but you would want to soak them first so that they don't burn. Here's a
Once the meat and vegetables are placed on your skewers, place them in your preheated Air Fryer of 390 degrees Fahrenheit. I usually can fit about 6 kebabs on my Air Fryer. I cook my kebabs for 12 minutes, flipping them halfway through.
What is the best meat and vegetables to use for my kebabs?
I suggest using top sirloin for these steak kebabs. It’s a cheaper cut but stays juicy after marinating and air frying.
For the vegetables, I've included my favorites in this recipe but you could definetly sub for your favorites. I'm thinking zucchini, pearl onions, and colored bell peppers would be great.
I hope you enjoy this Air Fryer Steak Kebab recipe as much as we do. Until next time.
