Air Fryer Pork Chops
Description
Air Fryer Pork Chops offers a straightforward and reliable way to prepare boneless pork chops using a few seasonings and a modern cooking method. By seasoning with Italian seasoning, garlic powder, and salt, the chops gain a gentle savory flavor profile without overwhelming the pork's natural taste. Cooking at 360°F for around 14 minutes with a flip halfway produces a well-cooked chop with a slightly crisp exterior and a juicy interior confirmed by reaching 145°F or above.
The method's resting step after cooking is vital to keep the pork chops tender by letting the meat fibers relax and juices redistribute evenly. This dish is practical for a quick yet satisfying meat component in a meal, complementing easily paired sides such as vegetables or grains.
Ingredients
- 2 pork chops boneless
- 3/4 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt or to taste
Instructions
- Sprinkle the pork chops with the Italian seasoning, garlic powder and salt.
- Put in the air fryer basket and set the air fryer for 360 F.
- Cook for 14 minutes, flipping halfway through the cooking time.
- Check the temperature with an instant read meat thermometer. It should read at least 145 F for food safety. If the pork hasn't reached that temperature put it back in for another 2-3 minutes and test it again.
- Let the pork chops rest on a plate for 5 minutes before serving.
