Easy Air Fryer Pork Chops
Easy crispy, tender Air Fryer Pork Chops and green beans is a simple, amazing go-to weeknight meal.
Ingredients
Air Fryer Pork Chops:
- 2 pork chops bone-in
- 2 Tbsp avocado oil or olive oil
- salt sea salt
- 2 tsp garlic powder
- 1 ½ tsp onion powder
- 1 tsp paprika
Air Fryer Green Beans:
- 1 lb Green bean trimmed, fresh
- 1 Tbsp olive oil
- ½ tsp garlic powder
- salt sea salt, to taste
Instructions
Cook the Pork Chops:
- Preheat the air fryer to 400 degrees F for 5 minutes.
- Pat both sides of the pork chops with a paper towel to absorb any excess moisture.
- Coat the pork chops in avocado oil (or cooking oil of choice), then sprinkle liberally with sea salt, paprika, garlic powder, and onion powder.
- Place the pork chops in the air fryer, ideally such that they are not touching (no huge deal if they are. Just be sure they aren’t overlapping).
- Air fry at 400 degrees for 6 minutes, flip, then air fry for an additional 6 minutes or until the pork chops reach an internal temperature of 150 degrees F. Note: if you’re using boneless pork chops, air fry at 400 for 10 minutes).
- Immediately remove the pork chops from the air fryer and set them on a plate to rest for 5 to 10 minutes before serving.
Make the Green Beans:
- If you’re making green beans to go along with the pork chops, here’s what you do!
- Chop the ends off of the green beans, then toss them in a bowl with avocado oil (or cooking oil of choice), sea salt, and garlic powder.
- Air fry green beans at 400 degrees F for 5 to 10 minutes (depending on your preference). I find 6 to 7 minutes to be perfect for me, where the green beans have softened and are beginning to turn golden-brown but are still al dente.
