Step 1
Begin by seasoning the pork chunks generously with salt, pepper, cumin, oregano, and chili powder.
Step 2
Set your Instant Pot to the sauté function and heat a drizzle of oil. Sear the seasoned pork until golden brown on all sides.
Step 3
Add the diced onion, minced garlic, orange juice, and lime juice to the Instant Pot. Stir to combine, ensuring that the pork is coated in the flavorful liquids.
Step 4
Secure the lid of the Instant Pot and set the valve to the sealing position. Cook on high pressure for 45 minutes.
Step 5
Once the cooking cycle is complete, allow the pressure to release naturally for 10 minutes before manually releasing any remaining pressure.
Step 6
Using two forks, shred the pork into bite-sized pieces directly in the Instant Pot.
Step 7
Serve the carnitas hot, garnished with fresh cilantro and your choice of accompaniments.
