Notes
Season the pork chops generously on both sides! Especially if using thick cuts.
Don’t overcook! Pork chops get really tough and dry when overcooked. Use a meat thermometer, the pork chops should be cooked to an internal temperature of 145 degrees F. However, the pork chops will continue cooking while they rest. I like to remove them from the air fryer when they’re around 140 degrees.
Serve with warm barbecue sauce on the side.
Preheat the air fryer for 5 minutes at 375 degrees and spray the basket with nonstick spray before cooking.
Let the meat rest! If you slice into the pork chops right away, all of the juices will escape.
