Ingredients
- 1 pork tenderloin about 1 ¼ to 1 ½ pounds
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
Seasoning Mix
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
- ½ teaspoon Italian seasoning
Instructions
- Preheat the air fryer to 400°F.
- Remove the silver skin from the pork tenderloin by slipping a knife under it. Gently pull the silver area off while cutting with the knife.
- Combine the seasoning mix in a small bowl and brush over the tenderloin on all sides. Season with salt and pepper.
- Place the pork tenderloin in the air fryer basket (cut it in half to fit if needed) and cook for 16-17 minutes or until pork reaches 145°F. (I remove the pork from the air fryer a few degrees before as it will continue to rise while resting).
- Let pork rest at least 5 minutes before serving.

Notes
- Appliances and cooking times can vary. Check the pork early to ensure it doesn't overcook.
- Use an instant read meat thermometer. This is a very lean piece of meat and it will dry out if overcooked.
- This recipe is for a 1 1/4 lb tenderloin. If yours is smaller or larger, cooking time will need to be adjusted by a couple of minutes.
- If the tenderloin is too large to fit, it can be cut in half. Cooking time will not change.
- Rest the tenderloin at least 5 minutes before slicing.
- The pork tenderloin can and should be a little bit pink in the middle for the best results.
