    Green Chili Pork (Instant Pot)

    Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

    Green Chili Pork is an easy and tasty way to use pork in your kitchen.

    With the addition of green chili salsa, you can make a really versatile dish in just under 30 minutes.

    What cut of pork is best for this recipe?

    I personally use pork tenderloin for this recipe because it's easy and faster to cook than other cuts.

    However, you could also use pork shoulder and cook it for a bit longer to get a tender consistency.

    What do you serve with green chili pork?

    The possibilities are endless. I like to make a big batch of this green chili pork and keep it handy for bowls, wraps, tacos and sandwiches.

    One of my favorite ways to eat it is in a rice bowl with cilantro lime rice, pickled onions and avocado. Super easy to assemble and delicious for lunch or dinner.

    Another favorite is to make it into a crunchy wrap. For that, I use low carb pita and stuff them with the pork, cheese, lettuce, tzatziki and pickled onion.

    The one thing I love about green salsa is that it has mild heat and does not overpower the flavors of the dish. It enhances the flavor of the meats specially poultry.

    Another way I love to use this meat is in nachos. Add a creamy cheese sauce and your favorite tortilla chips and you have a crow-pleaser snack in no time.

    Also, if you visit Phoenix and want to eat an amazing green chili pork stew, I highly recommend you visit Salty Sow.

    Equipment

    • Instant Pot

    Ingredients
      

    • 1 LBS Pork Tenderloin
    • 2 cups Salsa Verde I use mild
    • ½ Onion chopped
    • 3 cloves garlic minced
    • 1 teaspoon salt
    • ½ teaspoon pepper
    • 1 tablespoon olive oil

    Instructions
     

    • Add salt and pepper to your pork tenderloin and sear it over in your instant pot using the saute mode. Set aside and do not rinse your pot.
    • in the same pot used for the pork, saute your onions in the olive oil until translucent for about 3 minutes
    • Add the garlic cloves and saute for 1 more minute until fragrant
    • add the salsa verde and the pork back to the pot
    • pressure cook on high for 15 minutes, allow a 5 minute natural release and then do a quick release
    • If your pork has too much liquid, use the saute mode to reduce it until it has the consistency you would like.
