Ingredients For Air Fryer Pork Chop Recipe

- Oil: Use olive oil or any neutral cooking oil for searing.
- Seasoning mix: I used Greek seasoning, but you can experiment with other blends like Cajun or Italian.
How to Make Pork Chops In The Air Fryer
Start by coating your boneless pork chops with a bit of oil. This will help the seasoning stick to the meat and give the chops a crisp exterior.
Then sprinkle the pork chops with your chosen seasoning mix. Greek seasoning works well for a Mediterranean flair, but your favorite blend will work.
Place the seasoned pork chops into your air fryer basket or on a pan that fits your fryer. Set the air fryer to 400ºF and cook the pork chops for ten minutes.
Flip them over and continue cooking for another eight minutes, or until they reach an internal temperature of 160ºF. Keep in mind that thicker chops might need a bit longer.
Once done cooking, let them rest for five minutes before serving. This resting time helps the juices redistribute, ensuring every bite is tender.
Tips for Making Air Fryer Chops
Tip 1: Choose pork chops of even thickness for more uniform cooking.
Tip 2: If your chops are thicker, adjust the cooking time.
Tip 3: Let the pork chops rest for a few minutes after cooking and before serving.
