Air Fry Pork
Arrange the pork medallions in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Cook for 8 minutes. Flip the medallions and brush generously with the Dijon glaze. Cook for another 5-7 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C) for medium-rare to medium, and the glaze is slightly caramelized.

Rest and Serve
Remove pork from the air fryer and let it rest for 5 minutes before serving. This allows the juices to redistribute, ensuring tender meat. Serve with your favorite sides like roasted vegetables or mashed potatoes.
