Juicy and tender pork tenderloin cooked to perfection in the air fryer. This recipe is quick, easy, and results in a delicious meal with minimal effort.
Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 1.5 pound Pork Tenderloin
- 2 tablespoon Olive Oil
- 1 teaspoon Smoked Paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic Powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Onion Powder
- 0.25 teaspoon Black Pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
Instructions
Preparation Steps
- Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C).
- Pat the pork tenderloin dry with paper towels. This helps create a nice crust.
- In a small bowl, mix together the smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, and salt.
- Rub the olive oil all over the pork tenderloin. Then, sprinkle the spice mixture evenly over the entire surface of the pork, pressing gently to adhere.
- Place the seasoned pork tenderloin in the air fryer basket. Ensure there is some space around it for air circulation.
- Air fry for 18-25 minutes, flipping halfway through, or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C) in the thickest part. Cooking time will vary depending on the thickness of the tenderloin and your air fryer model.
- Once cooked, remove the pork tenderloin from the air fryer and let it rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing. This allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in a more tender and flavorful roast.
- Slice the pork tenderloin and serve hot. Enjoy!
Notes
This pork tenderloin pairs wonderfully with roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or a fresh salad.
