Servings: 3 servings
Calories: 295kcal
Ingredients
- 1 lb pork fillet (tenderloin), 450 g, Note
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon fine sea salt
- ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 teaspoon sweet paprika
- ½ teaspoon smoked paprika
- ¼ teaspoon hot paprika
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
Instructions
- Trim pork fillet: Remove the excess fat and the silverskin on the pork tenderloin.
- Preheat the air fryer, if necessary, and according to the machine's instructions. I need to preheat my air fryer for 3 minutes at 190°C/ 370°F.
- Season pork: Mix all the spices. Coat the meat with the oil and rub it well with the spices. Place into the basket.
- Air fry for 10 minutes, flip, and cook for 7 more minutes. The cooking time depends on the thickness of the meat pieces. It is best to check that the recommended internal temperature has been achieved by using a meat thermometer. The temperature should be 63-70°C/ 145-160°F. The temperature will rise slightly after you remove the meat from the pan, so if you remove it when at 63 C/ 145 F, it will have a temperature of 65 C/ 149 F once you serve it.
- Let rest for 5 minutes, slice, and serve.
Notes
You can halve a larger piece and serve more people. In this case, increase the quantity of spices as well.
