This Instant Pot Balsamic Pork Tenderloin  has great flavor thanks to a balsamic glaze made with rosemary and is quick and easy thanks to the Instant Pot.

Instant Pot Balsamic Pork Tenderloin

The Instant Pot not only makes this quick and easy but it makes it super tender and flavorful.  It is the perfect answer for a busy week night meal or a post holiday cooking burn out!

Balsamic Pork Tenderloin

With only a handful of ingredients you can prep this meal in about 5 minutes, let it cook in the Instant Pot for 35 minutes and in under an hour you have a tender, delicious dish to serve your family.

Just combine all the ingredients except for the pork and oil  together in a bowl.  One of my favorite features of the Instant Pot is the saute feature.  Turn it on, add the oil and brown your pork on all sides.  Add the sauce into the Instant Pot.  Put the valve on sealing, and turn it to the meat setting for 35 minutes.  Do a natural release. You’ve got dinner!

How to Thicken Gravy in Instant Pot

A delicious balsamic gravy is created as the meat cooks.  If you would like the gravy thicker, remove the pork from the Instant Pot.  Take out about 1/2 cup of gravy, add in 4 tsp more of cornstarch and return to Instant Pot and stir.  Turn onto saute and cook for a few minutes, stirring as it thickens.  Then pour this yummy gravy over your meat.

The gravy makes this dish perfect for serving over rice or mashed potatoes.  You need something to soak up all that yummy gravy.

    Very flavorful, easy to prepare, no fancy ingredients. It took about 12 minutes to Brown the pork cubes. Did it in two batches to get browning. Then took about 8-9 minutes to come to pressure (I used a 6qt. IP), 35 minutes cook n 20 mins NR. So it took longer than written but turned out just fine. Next time I will only cook 30 mins under pressure. Meat was a tad dry. I’ll make again FOR SURE! Thank you!

    This is an excellent recipe, the sauce is so flavorful. We spooned it over the meat and some mashed potatoes. I used the 2 pork tenderloin package from Costco. (Only used one of them, but there was enough sauce to have been able to use both of the tenderloins). Would 100% make this again.

    Any suggestions on how to convert this recipe to a slow cooker or a conventional? Sounds like something my family would love but don’t have an Instant Pot. Thanks!
