These are so good, the entire family will be talking about these for weeks. They are so easy, and you get an amazing sauce, just by heating up a few ingredients in the saucepan or skillet. This is a great and easy recipe, for Air Fryer Honey Garlic Pork Chops.
Ever since I received my first air fryer, my family has really been enjoying some great pork chop recipes. Pork Chops prepared in the air fryer are AMAZING!
This recipe is no different, except I was looking for something different and my favorite two things are honey and garlic, so I came up with a very simple sauce for air fryer pork chops.
How to Air Fry Pork Chops For This Recipe–
- This recipe can be made with either boneless or bone-in pork chops. I went with a bone-in pork chop in this recipe, because the bone really gives the air fried pork chops a LOT of flavors.
- Make sure to let your pork chops rest for about 30 minutes, so they get to room temperature before you air fry.
- Season with salt and pepper.
- Use a meat thermometer to make sure that pork chops are fully cooked, the time of your pork chops is really based on a few factors mostly being how thick your pork chops are, and what type of air fryer you own. Each air fry cooks at a slightly different time.
How to Make the Air Fryer Honey Garlic Pork Chops Marinade–
There are only a few ingredients for this marinade, which are:
- 4 tablespoons olive oil
- 4 tablespoons minced garlic
- 1/2 cup honey
- 4 tablespoons lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons sweet chili sauce
So, while the pork chops are air frying, grab a skillet or frying pan and saute the garlic, in some olive oil. Then add the honey, lemon juice, and sweet chili sauce, and great a great and easy sauce for the pork chops. I love sweet chili sauce, because it gives a lot of flavors, without overbearing the pork chops.
If you have not used sweet chili sauce it is simply a combination of red chili peppers or red jalapenos with rice wine vinegar. Depending on the brand you purchase it is either sweetened with sugar or fish sauce. The sauce takes on the flavor of being sweet, sour, and spicy, which really pairs well with both the garlic and honey and lemon juice.
