If you have leftover pork chops, there are a few different ways that you can store them for later use.

Let the pork chops cool to room temperature, before storing.

One option is to wrap the pork chops tightly with plastic wrap or aluminum foil and then place them in the refrigerator or freezer. This will help ensure that they stay fresh for several days.

What To Serve With Keto Air Fryer Pork Chops

One of the best things about a keto diet is that you don’t have to give up eating pork chops. These delicious and protein-packed cuts are very versatile, making them an excellent addition to most meals. However, there are many ways to make these keto pork chops taste good – not just by cooking them in their own juices. Many people take a basic pork chop recipe and turn it into something amazing by serving it with other tasty ingredients. If you want to make your pork chops an instant hit at the dinner table, then try adding some of my favorite sides:

1. Sauerkraut: Sauerkraut is made from cabbage that has been fermented and pickled. It is a great way to add more flavor and texture to your keto pork chops, as well as tons of extra vitamins and minerals. All you need to do is prepare the sauerkraut according to the instructions on the label and then simply serve it up alongside your pork chops. It’s the perfect combination.

2. Bacon: There is no denying that bacon really does make everything taste better, especially pork! Adding a few strips of crispy fried bacon to your plate will instantly give your low-carb pork chop dinner an extra punch of flavor and texture. Just cook the bacon until it is nice and crispy, then serve it on the side or crumble it over your pork chops to finish.

3. Cheese: Adding some cheese to a dish will always improve the flavor and texture of whatever you are eating, including keto pork chops. Try grating your favorite soft cheeses, or parmesan cheese, over your pork chop dinner for a creamy yet crunchy finish. Cheese always adds great flavor!

4. Mushrooms: If you are looking for something a little lighter, try adding some sauteed mushrooms to your pork chops before serving them up. This low-carb topping will provide a slightly more sophisticated flavor than bacon or cheese and is surprisingly delicious when paired with the meaty taste of pork. This makes for a delicious meal!

5. Avocado: If you are feeling a little fancy and want to serve something extra special at your dinner table, why not try topping your pork chops with avocado? This fruit pairs perfectly with the earthy flavor of meat and will provide plenty of healthy fats to keep your body fueled.

6. Green salad: One of the easiest ways to liven up your pork chop dinner is to serve it with a fresh and healthy green salad on the side, or as a base for your meal. This will add an extra serving of vitamins and minerals (as well as some crunch!) and can also help you feel more satisfied after eating
