- Garlic powder, salt, and pepper are used to season pork chops.
- Set the Instant Pot to Saute mode. Pour in the oil.
- Pork chops should be browned in batches, about 2 minutes per side. Remove the Instant Pot from the heat and set it aside.
- Scrape any brown pieces from the bottom of the Instant Pot and add 1 cup of broth. (Deglaze the instant pot thoroughly to avoid your meal getting burned.)
- Sliced mushrooms, diced onion, and browned pork chops should be added in that order. Add in a dollop of mushroom soup and a sprig of parsley on top.
- Place the lid on the Instant Pot and set it to high pressure for 15 minutes (it will take about 15 minutes to reach pressure).
- Allow 10 minutes for the Instant Pot to naturally release its pressure. Any leftover pressure should be released.
- Set aside the pork chops from the gravy.
- In a separate bowl, combine the remaining broth and cornstarch. To bring the gravy to a boil, set the Instant Pot to Saute. To achieve the correct consistency, add a small amount of cornstarch mixture at a time.
- Serve pork chops with gravy over mashed potatoes.
