Balsamic Pork Pizzaiola

This past weekend, we moved into our new home. It was a long but exciting weekend. Admittedly, we ate out or ordered in a few times, much more than we normally would. Then, Sunday afternoon, we realized our stovetop was not working.

So, today’s recipe came from a necessity to be creative with our cooking plans. While we wait for the stove to be fixed under our home warranty, we’ll be using our Instant Pot a lot this week—Tomato Soup, Split Asparagus Soup, maybe an adapted version of our Hearty Stovetop Chili, and we might even make this recipe again. We hope you like it, too!

Ingredients
2 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil
salt and pepper
4 bone-in, center-cut pork loin chops
1 medium onion, halved and sliced
1/2 tsp herbs de provence
2 Tbsp balsamic vinegar
1 14-oz can diced tomatoes
1/2 tsp red pepper flakes
1-2 Tbsp fresh Italian parsley, chopped, for garnish

Method

Warm oil in the Instant Pot on sauté mode. Season pork chops with salt and pepper. Sear pork chops, about 3 minutes on each side. Then remove them and set aside on a plate.

Add onions and herbs de provence to Instant Pot and sauté until onions are soft. Pour in the balsamic vinegar and sauté for another 2 minutes.

Return pork chops to the Instant Pot. Add tomatoes and sprinkle in the red pepper flakes. Set the Instant Pot to pressure cook for 30 minutes.
