Here is a super easy and yummy main dish that the family will love--air fryer pork tenderloin. Served with your favorite side, it's a great family recipe!

Like most of you, I have been spending an infinite amount of time in the kitchen since the lockdown began. Breakfast, lunch, dinner I am in there. My husband doesn’t cook at ALL so yeah, it’s me. My oldest son makes a hot breakfast for himself, and my middle child starts school so early that he makes himself cereal but breakfast for me and hubby? Me.

I have also be hyper aware of food waste since all of this started. I have been extra diligent about freezing meats and thawing properly so I can avoid going to the grocery store as much as possible.

During grocery shopping I buy all kinds of meat, in different cuts. I love all cuts of pork, a lean cut of pork, pork shoulder, even air fryer pork chops–so this air fryer pork roast was a no brainer.

Here is a super easy and yummy main dish that the family will love--air fryer pork tenderloin. Served with your favorite side, it's a great family recipe!

My last grocery run had steak, ground beef, chicken wings, legs, thighs, pork sausage, pork tenderloin, chicken nuggets and so much more. I have tons of spices in my cabinet so I know that I can keep things pretty creative on my side.

However, like I mentioned before, the sheer amount of time I have spent in the kitchen is wearing me out. I am so excited to share this extremely simple air fryer marinated pork tenderloin recipe that is not only easy and low maintenance, it is tender and delicious too!

Not to mention that the perfect crust forms too. All you need is butter and garlic and herb seasoning. These two ingredients and the magic of the air fryer is all you need! Place the pork into the bottom of the air fryer basket and you are good to go!

If you are looking for some meal prep options the boneless pork loin is a great recipe! It’s the easiest way to add some protein to your meal.

What type of side dishes can I have with this air fryer pork loin roast?

You can add a salad on the side or like me have some rice and peas or white rice on the side. You could even add some of these easy and amazing baby potatoes. If you want to really add some razzle dazzle use your cutting board and cut and saute some onions and peppers to go with it! This dish is great way to celebrate holidays or special occasions. Once you make this for the first time you won’t regret it!

For a great juicy pork roast be sure not to jump in as soon as it’s done. Take some time, and as the pork rests, the juicier it will be.

Be sure to make sure the internal temperature reaches 145 degrees by checking the internal temperature of the pork with a digital thermometer for the best results. Compared to the traditional oven, this recipe has a quick cooking time of 25 minutes. Tender perfection!

The simplicity of an air fryer really takes all the guesswork out of making this roast pork. It’s easier than ever to cook pork tenderloin! This easy recipe provides tender meat and will become one of your favorite pork recipes.
