Juicy Air Fryer Pork Chops (Printer-Friendly Version)

Tender pork chops crisped to perfection with a flavorful seasoning blend and quick air fryer cooking.

# Required Ingredients:

→ Pork Chops

01 - 4 boneless pork chops, 25 mm thick

→ Oils

02 - 30 ml extra-virgin olive oil

→ Seasonings

03 - 28 g finely grated Parmesan cheese
04 - 5 ml garlic powder
05 - 5 ml kosher salt
06 - 5 ml onion powder
07 - 5 ml smoked paprika
08 - 2.5 ml freshly ground black pepper

# Step-by-Step Instructions:

01 - Pat pork chops dry with paper towels and coat both sides evenly with extra-virgin olive oil.
02 - In a medium bowl, combine Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, kosher salt, onion powder, smoked paprika, and black pepper until well blended.
03 - Coat both sides of the pork chops with the seasoning mixture, pressing firmly to ensure the crust adheres.
04 - Arrange pork chops in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Cook at 190°C, flipping halfway through, until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part reads 63°C, approximately 15 minutes.
05 - Transfer pork chops to a plate or cutting board and let rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving.

# Handy Cooking Tips:

01 - To maintain juiciness, use a cooking thermometer to avoid overcooking and allow chops to rest for 10 minutes to let juices redistribute.
