Ingredients

2 lbs beef tenderloin, at room temperature
1 tbsp vegetable oil
1 tsp dried oregano
1 tsp salt
0.5 tsp cracked black pepper

Directions

1

Preheat the air fryer to 400°F (200°C).

2

Pat dry tenderloin with paper towels and place on a plate. Drizzle oil all over meat, then sprinkle with oregano, salt, and pepper.

3

Rub spices and oil into the meat.

4

Place the meat into the preheated air fryer basket, folding as needed to fit. Close the lid.

5

Cook for 22 minutes at 390°F (198°C), then reduce heat to 360°F (182°C) and cook for another 10 minutes. Check for medium doneness with an instant-read thermometer; it should read 57°C (135°F) when inserted into the center of the tenderloin.

6

Remove the tenderloin to a platter, cover with foil, and let it rest for at least 10 minutes before serving.
