Ingredients

• 2 Pork Tenderloins (16oz each)
• 2 Tbsp Olive Oil
• 1 Tbsp Cumin
• 2 tsp Kosher Salt
• 1 tsp Black Pepper
• 1 tsp Oregano
• 1/2 tsp Cinnamon
• 1 small (140g Onion, peeled and halved)
• 1 small (100g peeled Orange, halved)
• 2 cloves 10g Garlic, peeled
• 1 handful (3g Cilantro)
• 1/2 C 120g Low Sodium Chicken Broth

Instructions

1. Place the pork tenderloins in a large bowl with the olive oil. Mix the dry spices together before sprinkling over the pork. Use a rubber spatula or your hands to evenly coat the pork in the oil and spices. Set aside.
2. Add the onion, orange, garlic, cilantro, and chicken broth to a food processor and blend until smooth, about 30 seconds on high.
3. Turn the Foodi's sauté function on HI and let the pot heat up. Once hot, add the pork tenderloins. Cook for 2 minutes before flipping and cooking another 2 minutes.
4. Add the pressure cooking ingredients to the pot, moving the pork tenderloins around to evenly coat the bottom of the pot with the mixture. Seal the Foodi and pressure cook on HI for 12-14 minutes* with quick release pressure. The pork should reach an internal temp of 160F at its thickest point. Transfer the pork tenderloins to a bowl to rest for 5 minutes before shredding.
5. While the pork rests, turn the Foodi's sauté function back to HI to reduce the remaining liquid to a thick sauce, stirring occasionally.
6. After the pork rests, shred and add back to the pot with the thickened sauce. Stir to evenly coat and use the Foodi's broil function** for 10-15 minutes for crispy edges.
