How To Make Pork Chops In The Air Fryer

Preheat the air fryer to 390°F.

Add the seasoned pork chops to the preheated air fryer basket in a single layer. Depending on the size of your air fryer, you may need to cook them in batches.
Cook 12-15 minutes, flipping the chops halfway through. The exact cooking time will vary depending on the thickness of your pork chops and the how your air fryer heats. You’ll know the pork chops are done when the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C).

FAQs & Tips

Store leftover air fried pork chops in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
How long your pork chops need to cook will vary depending on your air fryer’s model and the thickness of the pork chops.
I suggest using boneless pork chops that are approximately 1-inch thick. This thickness will ensure even cooking.
Do not overlap the pork chops in the air fryer basket. If the pork chops do not fit in a single layer in the basket, cook them in batches.
