Equipment

  • 1 Air Fryer

Ingredients

  • 1 package turkey tenderloins They are typically packaged with 2 tenderloins.
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1/2 tablespoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1/2 tesapoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon poultry seasoning

Instructions

  • Preheat the air fryer at 400 degrees F for 2-5 minutes. Combine the seasonings into a bowl and stir to combine.
  • Remove the tenderloins from the package. Pat dry with a paper towel.
  • Brush olive oil on the turkey tenderloins. Add the seasonings on the turkey to completely cover. I also like to "rub" the seasoning in to make sure they are mixed in with the oil.
  • Carefully place the turkey tenderloin in the air fryer basket. Make sure they are in a single layer and not on top of each other. Cook for 400 degrees F for 25 minutes or until internal temperature reaches at least 165 degrees F.
  • Remove the turkey from the basket and place on a cutting board. Let rest for about 5 minutes before slicing. This helps to lock in the juices.

Notes

  • Preheating the air fryer when cooking meat helps to ensure even cooking.
  • Make sure to place the tenderloins in a single layer in the basket of the air fryer.
  • Feel free to adjust the seasonings to your taste.
  • Check on the tenderloins at the 25 minute mark to make sure the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees F.
  • Cooking time may vary depending on how big the tenderloin is and what air fryer you are using.
  • Let the turkey rest 5-10 minutes before slicing. This will help the juices distribute through the turkey, keeping it juicy.
