Instant Pot Maple Garlic Pork Tenderloin
A delicious and simple recipe that comes together in under 20 minutes.
Equipment
- 1 Electric Pressure Cooker
Ingredients
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 2 lbs pork tenderloin silver skin and extra fat removed
- 1 tsp dried oregano
- 1 tsp dried rosemary
- 1 tsp granulated garlic
- ½ tsp paprika
- Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
- ¾ c chicken broth low sodium or unsalted
- ¼ c soy sauce low sodium
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 3 tbsp maple syrup the real stuff
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tbsp whole grain or Dijon mustard
- 2 tbsp corn starch
- 3 tbsp cold water
Instructions
- Set Instant Pot to Saute and add oil. Pat the pork dry with paper towels.
- Season pork with oregano, rosemary, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper.
- Add pork to the hot oil and brown on all sides. Remove the pork from the IP and set aside. Add chicken broth to the Instant Pot and scrape up all the browned bits.
- Meanwhile, in a mixing bowl whisk together soy sauce, garlic, maple syrup, olive oil, and brown mustard; stir into the chicken broth.
- Return pork to the IP; coat around in the liquid. Turn OFF the Instant Pot. Secure the lid, make sure the vent is set to “Sealing”. Pressure cook on HIGH for 5 minutes. Then do a Natural Release for 10 minutes. Manually release any remaining pressure. Remove the cover and check that the internal temperature of pork registers at 135˚F. If it’s not there yet, just cover with the lid and let it sit a couple minutes. Remove pork from IP and let rest for 5 to 10 minutes before cutting.
- While pork rests, make the gravy by whisking together the cornstarch and water in a small mixing bowl. Whisk the cornstarch mixture into the chicken broth inside the IP, add a little bit at a time, to thicken the cooking liquid; cook to a desired thickness. Taste for salt and pepper and adjust to taste.
- Slice and serve with prepared gravy.
