Preheat the air fryer to 400 degrees F.
Season the beef loin on all sides, and then add it to the air fryer basket.
Air fry the loin at 400 degrees for 15-20 minutes or let it cook until it reaches your desired doneness. Flip the roast every five minutes to prevent burning.
Check the roast with a meat thermometer to ensure your meat reaches your desired temperature. Remove the roast from the air fryer when it is five degrees lower than the temperature you want. Rare: 130 degrees F. Medium: 145 degrees F. Well Done: 160 degrees F.
Preheat your skillet to medium heat and melt the butter. Sear all sides of the roast for two minutes per side.
Set the loin aside and allow it to rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
Slice the roast, top with gravy if desired, and serve the roast with your favorite side.

Don't skip preheating the air fryer, it's essential that the air fryer basket is warm when you place the roast in it to give you the best results.
Air fryers have different cooking times, so make sure that you use a meat thermometer to check the temperature of your roast.
If you didn't purchase a marinated tenderloin, you can marinate it yourself by allowing the beef loin to soak in a bowl or storage bag with 1-2 cups of beef stock for 4 - 12 hours before you cook it.
