Ingredients
- 2 - 2 1/2 pounds pork loin
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 6 cloves garlic whole
- fresh Rosemary optional
RUB:
- 2 tablespoons canola oil
- 4 cloves garlic minced
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon smoked paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 tablespoon garlic powder
- 3 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon fresh ground pepper
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
SAUCE:
- 3/4 cup chicken broth
- 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
- 1 tablespoon Balsamic reduction
- 1/4 cup soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon liquid smoke
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 6 cloves garlic smashed
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
SLURRY:
- 2 tablespoons corn starch
- 4 tablespoons cold water
Instructions
- Pat dry pork loin with paper towels.
- Pierce the pork in 6 places over the surface, and stuff 6 garlic cloves into the 6 holes.
- Combine in a small bowl the RUB ingredients; whisk to combine.
- Take the rub and using your hands rub it into the pork well.
- Turn the IP to SAUTE and once HOT, add 2 tablespoons olive oil to the IP, once the oil is shimmering, add pork and sear for a couple of minutes on each side, or until golden brown. Set aside.
- Combine the sauce ingredients and add the IP, using a spoon scrape the bits that are stuck to the bottom.
- Turn off Saute mode. Place pork loin back in the IP. Cover with the lid and lock it, turn the valve to seal.
- Pressure Cook for 30 mins followed by a 15-minute Natural Pressure Release.
- Check for doneness by inserting an instant-read thermometer into the thickest part of the meat; pork is done when the internal temperature reaches 145˚F.
- Remove pork from IP and transfer to a cutting board; cover pork with foil and let rest for 10-15 minutes before slicing.
- In the meantime mix the slurry ingredients in a bowl until cornstarch is fully dissolved.
- Turn on Saute mode, and once the mixture is simmering add the slurry. Stir to combine and cook for a few more minutes, until thickened.
- Drizzle the mixture on top of the pork when serving. Slice and serve. Garnish with chopped parsley.
