Ingredients
1
1.5 pounds pork loin
2
tablespoons
olive oil
3
cloves
garlic
minced
1
tablespoon
fresh rosemary
chopped (or 1 teaspoon dried)
1
tablespoon
fresh thyme
chopped (or 1 teaspoon dried)
Salt and pepper to taste
Optional: Additional spices
like paprika or onion powder
Instructions
Preheat the air fryer to 370°F (188°C).
In a bowl, combine olive oil, garlic, rosemary, thyme, salt, pepper, and any additional spices to form a paste.
Pat the pork loin dry with a paper towel and rub the herb paste evenly over it.
Place the pork loin in the air fryer basket, ensuring it doesn't touch the sides.
Cook for 20 minutes or until a meat thermometer reads an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C).
Let the pork loin rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing. This makes it juicier.
Serve as preferred, with sides like roasted vegetables, rice, or in a sandwich.
Notes
Let the pork loin reach room temperature before cooking to ensure even cooking.
Pat the pork dry before seasoning to help the herbs and spices stick better.
Don't overcrowd the air fryer basket; air circulation is crucial for achieving a crispy exterior.
Use a meat thermometer to ensure the pork reaches a safe internal temperature of 145°F (63°C).
Allow the pork loin to rest for a few minutes after cooking; this redistributes the juices throughout the meat.
