Equipment

Air Fryer

Ingredients

4 bone-in pork chops ½ inch thick
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon black pepper
½ teaspoon garlic powder
½ teaspoon paprika
½ teaspoon dried oregano
½ teaspoon dried thyme
1 cup panko breadcrumbs
½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
cooking spray

Instructions

Dab the pork chops with paper towels to remove any moisture.
Whisk the olive oil and Dijon mustard until the mixture is completely combined and creamy.
Cover both sides of each pork chop with the Dijon mixture.
In a shallow dish, whisk together the salt, black pepper, garlic powder, paprika, dried oregano, dried thyme, panko breadcrumbs and Parmesan cheese.
Dip each pork chop in the panko mixture and press in really well so it sticks, covering both sides.
Preheat the air fryer to 375°F for a few minutes and then spray the bottom of the basket with cooking spray. Place the pork chops in the basket and spray generously with cooking spray. Cook for 10-12 minutes, flipping halfway. (Cook in batches if the basket doesn’t fit all four pork chops).
Remove from the air fryer, garnish with some chopped parsley if you like and serve.

Notes

Preheat your air fryer! It helps the chops cook evenly and crisps up the coating beautifully.

Don’t overcrowd the basket. Air circulation is key for that perfect crisp—cook in batches if needed.

Use a meat thermometer. It’s the best way to avoid dry pork chops—pull them out as soon as they hit 145°F.
