Generally, for pork tenderloin, you'll want to cook for about 4-6 minutes per pound (450 grams) of meat. So, for a 1.5-pound tenderloin, you might choose a cooking time of around 6-9 minutes.

Once the cooking time is complete, allow the Instant Pot to naturally release pressure for about 10-15 minutes.

Open the Instant Pot lid, and use a meat thermometer to ensure the internal temperature of the pork tenderloin reaches a safe minimum of 145°F (63°C).

Remove the pork from the Instant Pot and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing. This resting period allows the juices to redistribute for optimal tenderness.

Slice the pork tenderloin into desired portions and serve with the cooking liquid or your favorite sauce.
