For extra flavor, marinate the pork chops in the spice mixture for at least 30 minutes before cooking. Adjust the amount of Dijon mustard to your liking. For a milder flavor, use a Dijon with honey. Be careful when releasing the pressure, especially with the quick-release method. Keep your hands and face away from the valve. If the sauce is too thin, simmer it for a few more minutes with the 'Sauté' function until it reaches your desired consistency. Serve with creamy mashed potatoes to soak up all that delicious sauce!
