Instant Pot Pork Loin with Carrots and Onions image

Pork Loin is so lean that it's often overcooked and turns out dry --but not with the Instant Pot. After just thirty minutes, you have tender and juicy pork in a rich, savory sauce. Serve with mashed potatoes for a quick and easy comfort meal.

Time 1h10m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 tablespoon light brown sugar
2 teaspoons dried dill
2 teaspoons sweet paprika
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
One 2-pound boneless pork loin
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
3 medium onions, halved and sliced 1/2 inch thick
1 pound carrots, cut into 1-inch chunks
1 tablespoon tomato paste
2 teaspoons chopped fresh thyme
2 teaspoons chopped fresh sage
1/2 cup dry white wine
1 cup low-sodium chicken broth
1 dried bay leaf
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley

Steps:

  • Stir to combine the brown sugar, dill, paprika, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and 1 teaspoon pepper in a small bowl. Rub the mixture all over the pork loin.
  • Set a 6- or 8-quart Instant Pot® to medium saute (see Cook's Note) and add the olive oil. When the oil is hot, add the pork loin and brown all over, turning with tongs, about 4 minutes. Remove to a plate. Add the onions and carrots and season with 1/2 teaspoon salt. Cook, stirring frequently, until the vegetables begin to brown, about 4 minutes. Add the tomato paste, thyme and sage. Stir to coat the vegetables in the tomato paste. Add the wine and simmer until reduced by half, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the chicken broth and return to a simmer. Tuck the bay leaf into the sauce and nestle the pork loin in the middle (it will not be covered by liquid).
  • Follow the manufacturer's guide for locking the lid and preparing to cook. Set to pressure cook on high for 30 minutes.
  • After the pressure-cook cycle is complete, follow the manufacturer's guide for natural release. After 10 minutes, being careful of any remaining steam, unlock and remove the lid. Remove the pork to a cutting board.
  • Return the sauce to a simmer on the medium saute setting. Mash the butter and flour into a paste with a fork in a small bowl. Whisk into the simmering sauce and cook, whisking, until sauce is thickened, about 1 minute. Discard the bay leaf and stir in the parsley. Thinly slice the pork and serve with the sauce.
