Ingredients
- 1/2 cup olive oil
- 1/4 cup honey
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest (see note 1)
- 1/4 cup lemon juice
- 6 cloves garlic minced
- 1 Jalapeno pepper minced (see note 2)
- 1 tablespoon fresh thyme plus more for garnish (or 1 teaspoon dried thyme)
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 4 boneless pork chops center-cut, about 1 1/2 to 2 inches thick each (see note 3)
Instructions
- In a large plastic bag with a zipper-top closure, add olive oil, honey, lemon juice, lemon zest, garlic, jalapeño pepper, dried thyme, paprika, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper.
- Add pork chop and mash to coat. Marinate in the refrigerator at least 3 hours or overnight.
- Preheat air fryer to 400 degrees. Remove pork chops from marinade and wipe off excess.
- Transfer pork chops to the air fryer basket, ensuring space between the chops for air to circulate. Cook until pork chops are well browned and reach an internal temperature of 140 degrees, about 10 to 14 minutes. Flip the chops over halfway through cooking.
- Remove from air fryer and allow chops to rest for 5 minutes to carry-over cook to 145 degrees. Garnish with fresh thyme if desired and serve.
Notes
- Lemon: Always zest the lemon before you cut it in half for juice.
- Jalapeños: For a milder marinade, seed the chilies (wearing gloves is recommended). For a spicier marinade, use serrano chilies instead.
- Pork chops: Look for boneless center-cut pork chops (also known as loin chops or center loin chops). Thicker-cut chops take longer to cook, so start checking for doneness at 10 minutes.
- Yield: This recipe makes 4 hearty entree-sized servings.
- Storage: Store leftover pork chops covered in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
