Instant Pot Pork Chops with Rice and Vegetables is a perfect example of why I love my Instant Pot.

 After working all day I can come home and cook a whole dinner for my family in one Pot!

I chose the Saute less function on my Instant Pot and added some olive oil.

When it had heated I placed the pork chops in the Pot.

I browned the pork chops on both sides for a couple of minutes per side.

When browned I removed the pork chops to a plate. 

Now I added in one cup of the water and used it to scrape any brown bits from the bottom of the pot.  This deglazing step is very important.

I pushed the cancel button on the Instant Pot then added the rest of the water and the long grain rice to the Pot.  I did not stir.

The kit I purchased for my Instant Pot included an egg rack.

This rack was perfect for placing over the rice and holding the pork chops while they cooked.

I also received a steamer basket in the kit.

Having this allowed me to cook vegetables on top of the rice and chops.  Now my whole dinner was in one Pot!

Then I placed the lid on the Instant Pot, turned the steam release handle to the sealing position and set the Instant Pot to Pressure Cook High for 3 minutes.

When the Instant Pot was done cooking, I allowed it to Natural Release for 10 minutes.

Then I turned the steam release handle to the venting position to finish with a Quick Release.

I removed the lid from the Instant Pot.

Using oven mitts I carefully removed the steamer basket with the brussel sprouts and carrots.

Next I dumped the vegetables into a serving dish and drizzled them with maple syrup before putting a lid on to keep them warm.

I carefully transferred the pork chops to a plate and spread the Teriyaki sauce over them.

Using oven mitts I carefully removed the egg rack and then fluffed the rice up with a fork.

Instant Pot Pork Chops with Rice and Vegetables is a very satisfying one Pot meal that your whole family will enjoy!
