Air Fryer Glazed Pork Chops

If you are looking for a quick, easy and delicious dinner idea, these air fryer glazed pork chops are a perfect meal idea.

Any time I can create a yummy, family-approved meal in under 20 minutes, I’m all in! That is just what this recipe for glazed pork chops is.

I sometimes feel a bit guilty eating pork chops. My dog is named Pork Chop. My son named him and we all thought it was adorable. His nickname has become “Chops” because although he is a little guy that looks cute and cuddly, he really wants to eat your face off. 

I never imagined that it would make me pause each time I’m about to make pork chops for dinner. Maybe I should have named him “Chocolate,” it might prevent me from craving it!

The most amazing thing about this recipe is how very little fuss there is. It’s a quick blending of 2 ingredients: brown sugar and vegetable seasoning blend. The only other thing to do is coat the pork chops with olive oil and then use the seasoning mix as a rub. So simple!

Not to worry if you don’t have the seasoning blend on hand, you can make something similar on your own:

1/4 tsp. garlic salt
1/4 tsp. cumin
1 tsp. paprika
1/4 tsp. oregano
1/4 tsp. celery seed

Feel free to use thin or thick boneless pork chops for this recipe. Keep in mind, for a thicker cut you will need to add a bit more time to the cooking process. If you prefer pork tenderloin, the brown sugar glaze goes great on that, as well.
