Instant Pot Pork Chop Soup (or Stew) with Potatoes and Vegetables

I love pork and I'm always looking for new things to make with it... This Pork Chop Soup with Potatoes and Vegetables was very good:@) I adapted a popular recipe so I could use my Instant Pot pressure cooker. It's pretty versatile, the original called for broccoli, I used green beans from the garden, and you could easily sub some frozen peas at the end. The only thing to be mindful of, there is a lot of sodium, so you might want to cut back where you can. Oh and, I added stew to the title, I can see this with the broth a little thicker, loaded with extra vegetables as a Sunday dinner. A nice change from beef stew. Very tasty stuff folks!

Recipe easily cut in half.
I'm going to list what I did,

The original uses bone-in chops, I used boneless.

Pork Chop Soup with Potatoes-adapted from Allrecipes
1 lb boneless pork chops-I used country ribs, fat trimmed
1 tsp paprika
1 tsp oregano
1 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp chili powder
1 bay leaf
2 Tblsp soy sauce
*3 C chicken broth
*2 C water-can use all water and add chicken bouillon
3 potatoes, cut into 1/2" chunks-I used russets and do suggest peeling them
2 stalks celery, 1/4" slice
1 C fresh string beans, cut
1 carrot, 1/4" slice
1 onion, diced
1 clove garlic, minced
1/4 C A/P flour
S&P to taste
  1. Add everything through water to pressure cooker vessel.
  2. Add lid, seal, and cook on high for 18 minutes. Automatic release.
  3. Remove meat to cutting board. Cut into bite size pieces or shred.
  4. Reserve 3/4 C cooking liquid.
  5. Add vegetables to vessel, lid and seal. Cook on high for 2 minutes, automatic release.
  6. Stir flour into reserved liquid, add back to pot. It will most likely thicken up as you stir it, if not, use saute feature to thicken.
  7. Add pork back to soup.
  8. S&P to taste.
Eat well and have a happy day:@)

  1. I've never thought of using pork instead of beef for a stew, great idea!

  2. Sounds like a great comfort stew, Lynn. I have some boneless country ribs in the freezer and they would be perfect.
