Tips:

  • For a crispier pork chop, pat it dry with paper towels before seasoning and cooking.
  • Don't overcrowd the air fryer basket. This will prevent the pork chops from cooking evenly.
  • Cook the pork chops in a single layer. This will help them cook evenly and prevent them from steaming.
  • Preheat the air fryer to 400°F (200°C) before cooking the pork chops. This will help them cook quickly and evenly.
  • Season the pork chops with your favorite spices. Some good options include salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika.
  • Cook the pork chops for 8-10 minutes per side, or until they are cooked through. The internal temperature of the pork chops should reach 145°F (63°C).
  • Let the pork chops rest for a few minutes before serving. This will help them retain their juices.
  • Serve the pork chops with your favorite sides, such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or a salad.
