Simple Instant Pot Pork Tenderloin

I wanted to try a pork tenderloin in the Instant Pot & found this recipe. It was also really good of course. The recipe called for carrots but I added an extra onion instead. I used a new button-the meat/stew setting. I'd make this again.

Pork Tenderloin (Pinterest):

2-3lb pork tenderloin
Med white onion, thinly sliced
3 large carrots, chopped into large chunks
Salt & pepper, to taste
2 tsp garlic powder
2 tsp paprika
2 tsp dried thyme
1 tsp dried rosemary
1 c chicken stock, water or white wine
1 tsp finely chopped parsley, optional
Oil

Turn instant pot to saute; drizzle about a tbsp of oil in bottom. While oil is heating, slice onions & carrots. Set aside. Massage salt, pepper, garlic powder & paprika into pork & place in instant pot. Sear for 2-3 min on each side until nicely browned. Pour in stock around pork and using a wooden spoon scrape up any browned bits.

Sprinkle rosemary & thyme onto pork & top with carrots & onions. Turn to "Meat/Stew" setting & "High Pressure" on the instant pot & secure the lid. Set the timer to 40 in. Once cooked, use the quick release function to let the steam out. Take out pork, slice & arrange on a platter. Using a slotted spoon, place carrots on platter. Sprinkle with parsley if desired.
