This pork tenderloin is so juicy and moist. Fillet is a lean piece of pork, so it benefits from the fat in the bacon. I use bacon in the middle, which is leaner than other cuts because it is cut from the belly. If you want to serve it with something sweet, this goes great with apricot jam or sweet chili sauce.
What temperature should I cook pork tenderloin?
Cook pork tenderloin at 400F degrees in the air fryer for ten minutes. Then turn the meat over and cook for eight to ten minutes until the internal temperature reaches 145-150 degrees.
How do you wrap meat in bacon?
You will need kitchen string to wrap pork in bacon, but toothpicks will work if that's all you have.
- Cut two strips of bacon in half and place two halves side by side, then four full strips, and then the other two halves.
- Place the fillet over the bacon.
- Roll up the pork jelly roll style tightly, starting with one long side.
- Tie the roast with kitchen string every 2 inches to keep the bacon from shrinking and falling off, each about 12 inches long.
What to serve with pork tenderloin wrapped in bacon
