If you ever heard me recommend a meat thermometer, you know I am a HUGE fan of making sure that your meat is perfectly done.
So, grab your meat thermometer, and check the internal temperature of the pork tenderloin, which should be 145 degrees F.
Depending on your air fryer, it will take between 15 to 20 minutes to cook up your pork tenderloin perfectly.

WHAT’S THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN PORK TENDERLOIN AND PORK LOIN?
Pork tenderloin and pork loin are about the same. They both are the other white meats. But there is a bit of a difference.
Pork tenderloin is also known as a pork fillet, and it’s a long thin piece of meat—the meat the pork tenderloin is taken from the rear of the pork.
A pork loin, also known as a pork loin joint, is taken from the larger pork section and is still very lean meat.
WHAT COLOR IS PORK TENDERLOIN?
The internal temperature needs to reach 145 degrees F, but it will still be a bit pink in the center of the pork tenderloin.
If you want it more well-done, you can, of course, continue to cook your tenderloin to your preference.
