Delicious, juicy Prosciutto Wrapped Air Fryer Pork Loin- ready in 30 minutes!
This air fried pork loin is a great twist on classic roast pork, without the hassle (and heat) of the oven. With a quick and easy dry rub and a crust of crispy, flavor-packed prosciutto slices, this juicy pork is a welcome main dish any night of the week.
What you'll need to make the air fried pork loin
To make this simple and tasty Air Fryer Pork Loin recipe, you will need:
- A boneless pork loin. You want to aim for one in the 1-2 lb range.
- Olive oil.
- Brown sugar. Light or dark, both work!
- Smoked paprika, aka my favorite spice.
- Salt and pepper.
- Garlic powder.
- A package of thinly sliced prosciutto.
Prepping the pork loin
To get the pork ready to cook, you'll first rub it with a bit of olive oil. Next, you'll make a quick spice rub, and generously coat the pork, rubbing it in to make sure every inch of the pork is coated.
Right before cooking, wrap the pork loin with slices of prosciutto, starting at one end and overlapping as necessary until the pork is totally covered. Tuck the prosciutto slices underneath the pork, and place the loin seam side down into the air fryer basket.
Cooking the pork tenderloin in the air fryer
Once your pork loin is ready to go, you'll cook it for 20-25 minutes, or until the pork registers 160 degrees in the center. You'll want to flip the pork loin over halfway through cooking to ensure all sides are crispy.
Resting the Pork Loin
As hard as it is to resist cutting right into the pork loin, you'll need to let it rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing into it after it cooks. This will allow the juices to redistribute in the pork, for a juicy, tender piece of pork.
Slicing the air fryer pork loin roast
To slice and serve, I like to make cuts about 2" thick width-wise across the pork loin roast, being careful to hold the prosciutto taught so that it does not tear. Be sure to use a sharp knife!

Was trying to figure out what to make for dinner this week and I went to my large freezer. I had a frozen pork tenderloin and frozen Prosciutto then I remembered this recipe that I have been wanting to try. I don't have an air fryer so I did mine in the oven at 375°, 15 minutes on each side, made sure the internal temp was 160°. Super simple, quick and easy meal for busy week nights. The meat was tender, moist and delicious. My 7 y/o son even asked for seconds and told me how delicious it was!
