Ingredients

  • 2 lbs Pork Tenderloin
  • 2 tbsp Olive Oil
  • 3 tsp Garlic, minced
  • 2 tbsp Brown Sugar
  • 2 tsp Chili Powder
  • 2 tsp Cumin
  • 2 tsp Onion Powder
  • 1 tsp Dried Thyme
  • 1 tsp Kosher Salt
  • 1/2 tsp Pepper

Instructions

  • 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 brown sugar, chili powder, cumin, thyme, onion powder, salt, and pepper in a bowl.
  • Add olive oil and garlic and stir until combined. Rub the mixture over the entire tenderloin.
  • Preheat the air fryer to 400° Fahrenheit.
  • Place the pork tenderloin in the air fryer basket and cook for 16-17 minutes or until the pork reaches 145°F. I remove the pork from the air fryer a few degrees before because it will continue to rise while resting.
  • Let pork rest at least 5 minutes before slicing and serving.
