Air Fryer Bacon Wrapped Pork Tenderloin

Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

So, you’ve made one incredible meal…but, you’ve still got half of an unused pork tenderloin that needs to be cooked. This recipe is truly a gourmet way to use up your leftovers. You can use this recipe for a lunch, or even meal prep so you don’t have to cook dinner the next day.

This recipe takes a little over thirty minutes to assemble and cook. Trust me, it’s worth the wait, tastes out of this world, and is surprisingly healthy. Bacon wrapped pork tenderloin is not only keto friendly, it’s gluten free as well. It makes for a great dinner for two, or is even better the next day. If you’re not using an air fryer, all of my recipes can also be made on a sheet pan in the oven.

  • 1 can olive oil cooking spray

Instructions

  • Preheat air fryer, or oven to 400 degrees.
  • Season pork tenderloin with salt, pepper, and two cloves of diced garlic. Wrap bacon around pork.

Notes

All air fryers cook at different speeds.  These recipes are meant to be a general guide.  Cooking times depend on various factors including thickness, cut, and type of meat used.  I use an Instant Pot Vortex Plus shelf air fryer.  If you’re using something different, especially a bucket type air fryer, I advise keeping an eye on food so it doesn’t under, or overcook.
