Instructions
 

  • Preheat the air fryer to 375 °F.
  • Pat the pork chops dry with a paper towel. Rub oil over both sides of each chop.
  • Combine the dry seasonings in a small bowl. Rub the mixture evenly over both sides of each pork chop.
  • Arrange the pork chops in the air fryer basket.
  • Cook for 9 minutes, flipping halfway through the cooking time. Internal temperature should read 140 °F. Let rest for 5 minutes until carryover heat raises the temperature to 145 °F.

Notes

  • Use pork chops that are 1 ½ to 2 inches thick. Thin pork chops will cook too quickly and won't achieve that “crisp on the outside, tender on the inside” texture that we’re aiming for.
  • Don’t overcrowd the air fryer basket. If you have a smaller model, you may only be able to cook two at a time in batches. 
  • For a consistent, golden-brown finish on both sides, flip the pork chops halfway through cooking. This encourages even browning and prevents the meat from becoming tough and chewy on all sides.
  • After cooking, let the pork chops rest for 3 to 5 minutes. This allows the juices to redistribute, making them extra juicy when you cut into them.
  • If you want crispier pork chops, lightly coat them in panko breadcrumbs or parmesan cheese before air frying. This adds both flavor and texture to your dish.
  • If you’re craving different flavors, experiment with other seasonings. Try cumin and chili powder for a kick of heat, or add a bit of brown sugar to the rub for a hint of sweetness.
Serve: For a hearty meal, serve with sides like mashed potatoes, casseroles, rice pilaf, or a thick soup. For a lighter option, enjoy with coleslaw, a light salad, some crusty bread or dinner rolls, or simply with applesauce on top.
Store: Place leftovers in a shallow airtight container and store them in the refrigerator for up to 5 days, or in the freezer for up to 1 month. To reheat, return to the air-fryer until heated through.
