Air Fryer Easy Apricot Pork Chops
Description
This was an easy alternative to shake and bake pork chops, the air fryer does a great chop at cooking them, without much effort. Today I made a sauce, which was really easy and my kids loved the pork chops.
Ingredients
- 2 pork chops
- 1/2 cup apricot jam
- 1/4 cup water
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 tablespoon minced garlic
- 1 teaspoon soy sauce
Instructions
- Start by flattening your pork on a cutting board.
- Season with salt and pepper.
- Spray your basket with non-stick cooking spray and then place the pork loin into the air fryer basket.
- Set your temperature to 320 degrees F.
- For 5 minutes.
- Check your pork for doneness; it needs to reach an internal temperature of 145 degrees F. Once it reaches an internal temperature, remove it from the air fryer.
- See the notes section on how to make the sauce.
- Dip your pork chops into the apricot sauce.
- Plate, serve, and enjoy!
Equipment
- Air Fryer
Notes
To make the apricot sauce, simply add the olive oil and garlic to a small frying pan, heat up the garlic for about a minute, then add the soy sauce, minced garlic, salt, water, and apricot jam, continuing simmering, until it comes to a boil.
