  4. Cook at 400 degrees F (200 degrees C) for 5 minutes. Reduce temperature to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C) and continue to cook, until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 140 degrees F (60 degrees C), 12 to 15 minutes.

  5. Remove from basket and let stand until internal temperature reaches 145 degrees F (63 degrees C), about 5 minutes.

    Tenderloin placed on a cutting board to finish resting.
