Easy Air Fryer Pork Tenderloin

• servings: 4 servings
• active time: 15 minutes
• total time: 35 minutes

Ingredients

1 tablespoon brown sugar

2 teaspoons smoked paprika

1 1/4 teaspoons coarse kosher salt

3/4 teaspoon garlic powder

3/4 teaspoon onion powder

1/4 teaspoon coarsely ground black pepper

1 to 2 tablespoons olive oil (see note)

1 medium (about 1.5 pounds) pork tenderloin (see note)

Directions

Mix the brown sugar and spices together in a small bowl.

Drizzle the pork with olive oil to coat evenly.

Sprinkle the spice mixture evenly over the pork rubbing it into all sides of the pork. It might seem like a lot of dry mix to use - but try to use all of it for maximum flavor.

Preheat air fryer to 400 degrees F for at least 5 minutes. (See note for oven cooking method.)

Place pork into the air fryer (use parchment to line the air fryer for easier cleanup, if desired) and cook for 18 to 22 minutes until an instant-read thermometer registers 145 degrees F at the thickest part.

Remove pork from the air fryer to a cutting board. Tent lightly with foil and let rest for 5 to 10 minutes before slicing. Pour any extra juice from the air fryer or cutting board over the pork before serving.
