Summary <\/strong>\u2013 Preheat your air fryer for 5 minutes at 350\u00b0 F. Cook your air fryer pork chops for 15 minutes, flipping half way through. <\/p>\n\n\n\n I\u2019m sure you have\nreturned home from work, shattered after a day of hard work. All you want is a\nsimple meal that can be rustled up quickly, with minimal fuss. Let me introduce\nto you, air fryer pork chops. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Let your humble air\nfryer do the hard work while to take a moment to put your feet up. 15 minutes\nlater and you have a delicious and tender piece of pork ready to be plated up. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Aside from the\nsimplicity of making them, they are simply delicious\u2026when done properly. For\nthose of you that find that they are dry or chewy\u2026they are not being cooked\nright. <\/p>\n\n\n\n It is a meat that you\ncan easily overcook. Paying attention pays dividends here, you have to get the\ntiming right. <\/p>\n\n\n\n When a pork chop is\ndone right, they are full to the brim with flavor, juicy and tender. Who doesn\u2019t\nlike eat with that kind of results! <\/p>\n\n\n\n Of course, there are\nplenty of ways to cook pork chops. Obviously, prior to the air fryer, there are\nplenty of methods. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Whether you cook it in\nthe oven, under the broiler or in the skillet, there are advantages to each. <\/p>\n\n\n\n One thing that is\nconsistent that I hear all the time, it is the over cooking of pork chops. It\nis incredibly easy to leave them cooking for too long. It ruins the consistency.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n Getting your timing\nright is imperative to great results\u2026obvious right!<\/p>\n\n\n\n This is why I like the\nair fryer. I simple cook at the temperature for the minimum time required.\nAfter this I check the temperature of the inside of the meat. <\/p>\n\n\n\n If it is at 145\u00b0 F, it\nis cooked. It is as simple as that. If the pork meat hasn\u2019t hit that temperature,\nput it back in at one-minute increments until it is done. Simple\u2026no fuss\u2026that\nis what cooking should be. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Is the air fryer the\nbest way to cook them? That is for you to decide. I like doing it this way but\nas I always say, there is always a place for every method. Give it a try, see\nwhether it is something that might fit your cooking style. <\/p>\n\n\n\n It actually makes a\nreal difference to your air fryer pork chops. In my experience, getting a\nthicker pork chop delivers better results. <\/p>\n\n\n\n They retain their\nmoisture better and come out better cooked and more tender. Remember, we are\naiming for the magic internal temperature of 145\u00b0 F. <\/p>\n\n\n\n If your pork chop is\ntoo thin, it will look quite pale on the outside. Browning it in the air fryer\nby leaving it in a little longer only serves to dry it out. <\/p>\n\n\n\n A thicker pork chop\ntakes a little longer to get to an internal temperature of 145\u00b0 F, thus giving\ntime for the outside to char the outside\u2026a better visual result. <\/p>\n\n\n\n If your pork chop is\naround an inch and a half to two inches, that is perfect. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Now that we have\nlooked at why you might use an air fryer for your pork chops, let\u2019s get into\nthe details of how it is done. <\/p>\n\n\n\n This is the method\nthat I use to get great results with my pork chops in air fryer. <\/p>\n\n\n\n I use a variety of\nseasoning to get the best flavour I can without having to marinate them\novernight. For my air fryer pork chops, I simply do the following. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Both sides of the pork\nchops get drizzled in olive oil. Following that, I season them both sides with\nsalt, pepper, onion powder, garlic powder, cumin and smoked paprika. <\/p>\n\n\n\nFor the win\u2026put your pork chops in your air fryer<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
