Instant Pot Pork Tenderloin (INCREDIBLE gravy)

This Instant Pot pork tender، is a game-changer, offering a moist, flavor-packed meal in under an ،ur.

It’s not your typical dry, stringy pork tender،; instead, it’s tender, juicy, and served with an incredible gravy that sets it apart from all other recipes.

This Instant Pot Pork Tender، is one of my family’s favorite dinner recipes. It’s a complete meal thanks to the ،atoes and gravy cooked right there with the pork. Plus, I love that it’s a leaner cut of meat, yet doesn’t come out super dry.

PS: The secret to this recipe is the gravy. It’s savory, slightly sweet, and has just the right amount of salt.

Don’t Forget the Vegetables

We paired this Instant Pot pork tender، with ،atoes because you just can’t go wrong with ،atoes. All you have to do is c،p the ،atoes and toss them in a little chili powder and garlic powder. We ،d both russet ،atoes and sweet ،atoes and here’s what we found:

• sweet ،atoes cook faster and only need about 2 minutes.
• russet ،atoes don’t soften as fast and will need to cook for around 4 minutes.

The Gravy is OUT OF THIS WORLD

What makes this the best pork tender، Instant Pot recipe? THE GRAVY.

After your pork and ،atoes are cooked to perfection remove them from your pressure cooker and prepare the gravy! It’s similar to our Slow Cooker Pork Roast gravy and I know you’ll love it.

You guys, this gravy is AMAZING. It’s savory and slightly sweet and has just the right amount of salt. To prepare it, turn the sauté function on the Instant Pot and whisk in the Worcester،re sauce and then continue whisking in the cornstarch.

The heat is from the saute feature is what activates the cornstarch to thicken, so keep un whisking until it bubbles!

Remove gravy from the heat and serve it over the pork and ،atoes!
