Spend beautiful summer days outside instead of in the kitchen by making these Easy Easy Air Fry Parmesan Crusted Pork Chop. These are made with just a few simple ingredients and can be ready from start to finish in less than 30 minutes.

What ingredients do I need to make these Easy Air Fry Parmesan Crusted Pork Chops?

  • Boneless pork chops 1/2 to 1 inch thick
  • Grated Parmesan
  • Garlic powder
  • Onion powder
  • Paprika or smoked paprika
  • Kosher salt
  • Ground black pepper

How do I make these Easy Air Fry Parmesan Crusted Pork Chops?

Pat pork chops dry with paper towels, then spray both sides of the pork chops with cooking spray.

In a small shallow bowl, combine Parmesan, garlic powder, salt, onion powder, paprika, and black pepper. 

Mix until well combined.

Coat both sides of pork chops with Parmesan mixture, pressing down so pork chops are fully covered. 

Spray the air-fryer basket with non stick cooking spray, arrange pork chops in a single layer.

Spray the tops of the pork chops with cooking spray.

Cook at 375° degrees, flip the pork chops halfway through, and cook until a thermometer inserted into thickest part of pork chop registers at 145° degrees, for about 10 minutes.

Let pork chops rest for 5-10 minutes before serving.

Serve with potatoes, rice or steam vegetables for a complete meal.

What air fryer do you recommend?

I love my COSORI Air Fryer 5.8QT. It is large enough to cook for a family of five.

You can find it online HERE on Amazon.

Can these be made without an air fryer?

Sure! These can also be cooked in a nonstick skillet/oven. Spray a 12 inch nonstick skillet with cooking spray and heat over medium-high heat. Add pork chops; cook 1 to 2 minutes, turning once, until golden brown, then place pork chops in a baking dish and bake for 13 to 18 minutes in oven until pork is no longer pink in center and meat thermometer inserted in center reads 145° degrees.

Ingredients:

  • 4 (4 oz.) boneless pork chops, about 1″-thick
  • 1/3 cup grated Parmesan
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1 tsp paprika or smoked paprika

This recipe is delicious! It is so easy to make and uses ingredients that I already had at home so I only had to buy pork chops. My husband raved about it all night after dinner. These pork chops will definitely be made again and again! Thank you!
