Ingredients

  • 1 lb Pork Tenderloin ((not pork loin roast))
  • 1/2 tsp Salt
  • 1/2 tsp Onion Powder
  • 1/2 tsp Chili Powder
  • 1/2 tsp Thyme
  • 1 tsp Rosemary
  • 1/2 cup Orange Juice
  • 1 1/2 Tbsp Garlic, ((7 to 9 cloves) pressed or finely minced)
  • 1/2 cup Soy Sauce, (low sodium)
  • 3 Tbsp Brown Sugar
  • 1 tsp Grated Ginger
  • 1/2 cup Honey
  • 1 tsp Olive Oil
  • 3 Tbsp Butter
  • 3 Tbsp Corn Starch
  • 4 Tbsp Cold Water
  • 2-3 cups Hot Cooked Rice

Directions

  1. 1

    First, note how much your pork tenderloin weighs (they are typically 1 to 1 1/2 lbs) and measure across to find out how thick it is. This recipe is for a 1 lb tenderloin at 1.5" thick. If yours is larger, it will need to rest longer after pressure cooking.

  2. 2

    Mix the dry rub ingredients together and coat the pork tenderloin on all sides. Set aside.

  3. 3

    In a bowl, whisk together the sauce ingredients until the honey is fully dissolved in the sauce. Set aside.

  4. 4

    Turn on the Sauté setting. When it is hot, add the olive oil and the butter. Then place the pork in the pot and brown in on all sides about 2-3 minutes each side. Then remove it to a plate.

  5. 5

    Close the lid and set the steam release knob to the Sealing position.

  6. 6

    Turn on the Sauté setting again. When it starts to simmer, add the corn starch slurry, stirring until the sauce thickens. Then turn off the pot.

  7. 7

    Remove the foil from the tenderloin and spoon some of the sauce over it. Place under the broiler and caramelize the coating. Watch it so it doesn't burn!

  8. 8

    Serve the tenderloin sliced into medallions, on top of some rice with more sauce over it.
