Ingredients for Air-Fried Herb-Crusted Pork Tenderloin with Creamy Dijon Sauce

Instructions

  1. 1 Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C).
  2. 2 In a bowl, combine the chopped rosemary, thyme, garlic powder, onion powder, panko breadcrumbs, salt, and black pepper. Mix well.
  3. 3 Rub the pork tenderloin with olive oil, then coat it with the herb and breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently to adhere.
  4. 4 Place the pork tenderloin in the air fryer basket. Cook for 25 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C). Ensure the crust is golden and crisp.
  5. 5 While the pork is cooking, prepare the creamy Dijon sauce. In a saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter and add the chicken broth. Stir in the heavy cream and Dijon mustard, whisking until smooth and slightly thickened.
  6. 6 Once the pork is done, remove it from the air fryer and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing. Serve with the creamy Dijon sauce drizzled over the top.

Serving Suggestions

  • Serve this indulgent pork tenderloin alongside creamy mashed potatoes or a buttery risotto for a truly indulgent meal. A fresh, crisp salad with a tangy vinaigrette can help balance the richness and add a refreshing contrast. For beverages, a chilled white wine like Chardonnay or a light red such as Pinot Noir pairs beautifully, enhancing the meal's flavors.

Storage Tips

To store leftovers, place the pork slices in an airtight container and refrigerate for up to 3 days. To reheat, place slices in the air fryer at 350°F (175°C) for about 5 minutes, or until warmed through. The sauce can be stored separately in a small container and reheated gently on the stove over low heat.
