A simple air fryer pork chop recipe that everyone will love. Tender, juicy, and super-flavorful! Boneless or bone-in chops can be used, no breading is needed.
Air frying pork chops is so quick and easy, and is a healthier option than conventional frying as no extra oil is needed and excess fat can drain away during cooking.
I like to add a little seasoning, but a pinch of salt and pepper is all that is needed. Sometimes I also add a sprinkle of sugar, which can really help with getting the surface to caramelize to a golden brown.
