• Add pork loin roast and cook for 5 minutes per side, until golden brown.
• Once seared, place pork roast into slow cooker or instapot.

• Cook on low for 8 hours or on high for approximately 5 hours.

INSTANT POT GREEN CHILE PORK TACOS RECIPE

Steps:

• Place roast in Instant Pot.
• In a mixing bowl, mix together chilies, taco seasoning, and cumin. Spoon green chile mixture over pork.
• Put your lid on the pot and put the VALVE on sealing (not venting). Press the MANUAL (or PRESSURE COOK) button and set timer for 60 minutes (or 20-25 minutes per pound of your roast).
• When timer is finished, let pressure do a NATURAL RELEASE (it will take at least 20 minutes - I prefer to let it sit in my Instant Pot on the "keep warm" setting for a couple of hours and it will literally fall apart).
• Shred or slice roast (it should fall apart pretty easily) and serve on top of tortillas with your favorite toppings.

INSTANT POT® CHILE VERDE

Steps:

• Turn on a multi-functional pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot®), select Saute function, and add 1 tablespoon olive oil. Add tomatillos, jalapenos, and crushed garlic to the hot oil. Saute, flipping once or twice, until lightly browned, 6 to 7 minutes. (Remove garlic earlier if it browns sooner.)
• Transfer vegetables to the bowl of a food processor and puree with 2 cups chicken broth until smooth.
• Clean and dry the inner pot of the Instant Pot®. Select Saute function and heat remaining olive oil. Add pork, onion, bell pepper, oregano, cumin, salt, and pepper. Stir and saute, adding more oil if necessary, until pork is browned on all sides and vegetables are soft, 7 to 8 minutes. Cancel Saute function. Pour in remaining chicken broth and scrape the bottom of the pot with a wooden spoon to loosen any browned bits. Stir in reserved tomatillo puree.
• Close and lock the lid. Select high pressure according to manufacturer's instructions; set timer for 25 minutes. Allow 10 to 15 minutes for pressure to build.
• Release pressure using the natural-release method according to manufacturer's instructions, about 10 minutes. Unlock and remove the lid. Stir in chopped cilantro.

INSTANT POT PORK CHILE VERDE (PRESSURE COOKER RECIPE)

Steps:

• Remove the roast pieces from the Instant Pot and shred using two forks (it will literally fall apart).
• Add pork back into Instant Pot and mix with all the flavorful liquid.
• Serve on tortillas and topped with pico de gallo, fresh cilantro, shredded cheese, or your favorite toppings.
