Ingredients
- 2 pork chops frozen, 1" thick
Pork Chop Rub
- ½ teaspoon smoked paprika
- ½ teaspoon brown sugar
- ½ teaspoon Italian seasoning
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- ¼ teaspoons garlic powder
- ¼ teaspoons onion powder
- ⅛ teaspoon cayenne pepper
Instructions
- Place all the rub ingredients into a small bowl and mix together.
- Spray the air fryer basket with oil cooking spray. Place the frozen pork chops in the bottom of the air fryer basket and air fry at 380°F for 5 minutes. At this point, if the chops are stuck together, they will be defrosted enough to break them apart.
- Remove the pork chops from the air fryer to a cutting board and spray or rub them with olive oil. Press the rub into both sides of the chops.
- Return the seasoned pork chops to the air fry and cook for another 13-15 minutes or until a meat thermometer measures 145°F.
- Let them rest 5 minutes before serving.
