  • 1 tablespoon (15ml) of olive oil
  • 1/4 teaspoon (1g) of black pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon (2g) of garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon (1.5g) salt (if not using a brine)

Instructions

  1. Brine the tenderloin according to brining instructions.
  2. Take the tenderloin out of the refrigerator 20 minutes before cooking. Discard the brine and rinse the pork if it is salted.
  3. Remove the silver foil according to these instructions.
  4. Heat the fryer to 400 °F (205 °C)
  5. In a small bowl, combine the oil, black pepper, and garlic powder. If you haven't salted the pork, add the salt as well. Shake.
  6. Rub the oil mixture over the fillets.
  7. Place the steak in the frying basket and fold it if necessary.
  8. Cook for 10 minutes.
  9. Bake until the desired doneness, as indicated on an instant-read thermometer, at 145-160 °F (60 - 70 °C) recommended by the US Pork Board. It will take more than 8 to 15 minutes.
  10. Let it sit for at least 5 minutes before cutting it into 1/2 to 3/4 inch slices.
  11. Serve immediately.

TIPS

If you don’t have a deep fryer, brown in a pan safe for a hot oven, transfer it to a 400 °F (205 °C) oven and bake until the core temperature reaches 145 °F (95 °C).
