    If you've been following me, you know that my new love is cooking everything from appetizers to main meals to desserts in my Air Fryer. It's one of the most convenient appliances I've ever owned! It's not only easy to use but easy to cleanup too. And these Air Fryer Pork Chops are no exception.

    I made a perfectly seasoned entrée for dinner in just 15 minutes! And the air fryer keeps the pork chops moist and browns them perfectly, all at the same time. Plus these pork chops have no breading making them healthy, low carb, and keto friendly. Woohoo!

    How to cook pork chops in the air fryer

    1. Rub a little olive oil on all sides of the pork chops. You can also spray them with a nonstick spray such as Pam. Then rub the seasoning mixture into the chops.

    1. Spray the basket of the air fryer and place the chops inside. I thought these pork chops might have been a little large for my air fryer but it worked out beautifully. Next time though I plan on getting the boneless chops.
    2. Set air fryer to 390 degrees for 10 minutes and out comes some moist and beautifully browned pork chops.

    Just look at that moist bite of deliciousness! Doesn't it make you want to lick your chops? (I just had to say that, I couldn't help myself! lol) Seriously though, cooking bone-in or boneless pork chops in the air fryer could not be easier!

    I served my air fried pork chops with Keto Butternut Squash Casserole and some applesauce. I think they'd also be delish with Spanish Quinoa (a version of Spanish Rice), Maple Bacon Pecan Brussels Sprouts, and Air Fryer Garlic Bread.

    A delicious dinner that's healthy, filling, and will undoubtedly become your new family favorite. This really is one of the best air fryer pork chop recipes. Enjoy!

    Ingredients

    • 2 pork chops about 1" thick (can be boneless or bone-in)
    • Olive oil
    • ¾ teaspoon fresh rosemary
    • ½ teaspoon paprika
    • ½ teaspoon lemon zest
    • ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
    • ¼ teaspoon onion powder
    • ¼ teaspoon salt
    • ¼ teaspoon pepper
    • ⅛ teaspoon crushed red pepper

    Instructions

    • Rub olive oil over both sides of pork chops.
    • Combine remaining ingredients for seasoning and rub into both sides of pork chops.
    • Spray basket of air fryer with nonstick spray.
    • Lay pork chops in basket in a single layer. Try to leave some room around each pork chop for air circulation.
    • Cook at 390 degrees for 10-12 minutes.
    • Serve immediately.

    Notes

    It is best to allow pork chops to come to room temperature prior to cooking. This takes about 30 minutes.

      I had run out of menu/meal ideas since we have been eating at home more. The Air-Fryer had not been used and it was pork chop night. When I saw the title of the recipe "Easy Air Fryer pork chops" I was reluctant to try it but I had all of the ingredients. I was able to double the recipe and season 6 pork chops. DELICIOUS!
