Cook Time: 9 Minutes
Total Time: 19 Minutes
Ingredients
- 6 boneless pork chops
- 1 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- 2 tsp paprika
- 1 tsp kosher salt
- 2 tsp garlic powder
- 2 tsp onion powder
- 1 tsp black pepper
- Olive oil (enough to lightly coat chops)
Instructions
1. Prep the Pork Chops
- Pat the pork chops dry with paper towels to remove any excess moisture.
This step is crucial for achieving a crispy texture. - Lightly coat the pork chops with olive oil.
2. Prepare the Seasoning Mix
- In a bowl, combine the Parmesan cheese, paprika, kosher salt, garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper.
- Coat each pork chop evenly in the seasoning mix, pressing gently to ensure the mixture adheres.
3. Air Fry the Pork Chops
- Preheat the air fryer to 375°F (190°C).
- Place the pork chops in the air fryer basket in a single layer. Do not overcrowd.
- Cook for 9 minutes, flipping halfway through (about 4.5 minutes per side).
4. Rest and Serve
- Once done, let the pork chops rest for 3-5 minutes to allow juices to redistribute.
- Serve warm and enjoy!
Tips for Success
- Thickness Matters: Adjust cooking time slightly if your pork chops are thicker or thinner than average. Use an instant-read thermometer; the internal temperature should reach 145°F (63°C).
- Crispier Texture: For extra crispiness, lightly spray the coated chops with cooking spray before air frying.
- Pairing Suggestions: Serve with roasted vegetables, a fresh salad, or creamy mashed cauliflower for a complete meal.
