So, whether you use bone-in or boneless, you will get an amazing pork chop dinner in minutes.

Ingredients for {Crispy Breaded} Air Fryer Pork Chops

Pork Chops: I usually opt for a pork chop that is about 1 inch thick. This way, the outside coating will stay crispy, but the inside will not get dried out. Today, I used boneless, but you can easily switch it out for bone-in.

Coating: Seasoned with salt and pepper, then dipped in beaten eggs and then breaded with cornstarch. The cornstarch will help you get a crispy and delicious pork chop dinner.

How to Cook {Crispy Breaded} Air Fryer Pork Chops in an Air Fryer

1. Start by using the salt and pepper to season, your pork chops. This small step will add tons of flavor to your pork chops.
2. Then in a small bowl, whisk the eggs. You can add some more salt and pepper if you would like.
3. Then in another small bowl, add the cornstarch.
4. Then dip the pork chops into the eggs, and then shake off and then dip into the cornstarch.
5. Then place them in the air fryer.
6. Spray the pork chops with olive oil cooking spray.
7. Air Fry your pork chops on 360 degrees for 6 minutes, and then flip and spray it again, and air fry them for another 6 minutes.
8. Check with a meat thermometer to see if the pork is fully cooked.

How Long To Cook Pork Chops In An Air Fryer

Depending on the thickness of your pork chops, obviously thicker pork chops need a longer cooking time than thin pork chops.

I always use a meat thermometer to get the ideal temperature, there is nothing worse than overcooked pork chops. The USDA recommends that you cook your pork chops until the internal temperature reaches, 145 degrees F.

The other problem is that all air fryers cook at a slightly different time. Every single air fryer is different.

How To Make These In The Oven

If you want to make these in a traditional oven, preheat the oven to 400 degrees F, and then bake for about 7-10 minutes.

The internal temperature of the pork chops should reach 145 degrees F.

Tips for the Perfect Air Fryer Pork Chops

• Choose pork chops with all of the same thickness, so they all cook at the same time.
• Season with salt and pepper.
• Always check your meat with a meat thermometer before removing them.

What To Serve With Breaded Pork Chops:

These pork chops can go with almost anything, here are some of my favorites to serve them with,
