Set the pork tenderloin on a cutting board and use a sharp knife to cut it into 1 inch thick slices.
1 Pork tenderloin
In a medium mixing bowl, add all other ingredients except the pork, then mix them well with a whisk. Add in the pork medallions, and turn them over to coat them all on each side.
¼ cup Brown sugar, 1 Tablespoon Avocado oil, ½ teaspoon Salt, ½ teaspoon Garlic powder, ½ teaspoon Black pepper
Transfer the coated medallions to the air fryer basket.
Cook at 390°F for 7 minutes, flipping halfway through the cook time, or until the internal temperature reads 145°F with a meat thermometer.
Remove from the basket and let rest for 5 minutes, then serve!

I love avocado oil- it's a thick oil with a much higher smoke point than olive oil, and it's hard to beat when you want a neutral flavor! That said, don't feel restricted to only avocado oil. This recipe doesn't cook to a high enough temperature to reach smoke point, so use what you have!
The seasonings for this recipe are perfect to pair with just about anything you're cooking up, but feel free to experiment! I love adding in some herbs or a little Parmesan cheese.
Because this recipe takes such a short time to cook, try cutting the pork first and setting it in the seasoning mixture in the fridge for an easy marinade while you whip up the sides!
