QuestionCan I put them in a skillet, cover with water and cook that way?MicheleTop AnswererThat's called poaching, and of course you can. Start by browning both sides of the chops on high heat and set aside. Lower the heat to medium-high and add chopped onions and garlic, saute until onions are translucent. Deglaze with a little wine or chicken stock. Add any other seasonings you might want, such as rosemary or dill, put the chops back in and, if necessary add stock until chops are half submerged in the liquid. Lower heat to medium, cover and cook 25-30 minutes.

QuestionWhat kind of sauce should be used?Community AnswerAny kind, depending on what you're making it with. I like my pork chops in a cream sauce or alone with hot sauce. Some cook them in apple juice and top with applesauce. Barbecue sauce also lends itself well to pork chops.

QuestionDo I cook the pork chops before I bread them?rayCommunity AnswerNo. Coat them in egg and breadcrumbs before you fry them. If you want them extra crunchy, coat in flour, dip in egg, and then use Panko as breadcrumbs.

QuestionWill cooking pork chops in an instant pot for a few extra minutes make them more tender and juicy?Community AnswerIt rather depends for how long they have been cooking for and at what temperature. The danger is that you overcook and there is no way to tenderize overcooked pork. Generally speaking, a long time (hours) at a lowish temp is the best route for tenderness. This is the tried and tested goulash (goulasch) way; check out such recipes. However, if frying, then time and temperature are crucial; if overcooked then you risk quite the opposite of tenderness and there's no way back. Something akin to flash-frying, with breaded steaks|medallions, is very pleasant then reducing the temperature and adding your sauce, then serving.
