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

    Cup of Yum
  1. Trim pork fillet: Remove the excess fat and the silverskin on the pork tenderloin.
  2. 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.
  3. Season pork: Mix all the spices. Coat the meat with the oil and rub it well with the spices. Place into the basket.
  4. 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.
  5. 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.
