This Air Fried Parmesan Panko Pork Chops recipe is a delicious, low-carb, and crispy dish that’s easy to make and packed with flavor. With a crunchy pork panko and Parmesan crust, these pork chops stay tender and juicy on the inside.
Ingredients:
- 1 lb pork chops (boneless or bone-in)
- 1/2 cup pork panko
- 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp salt
- Tallow spray (or any cooking spray)
Instructions:
- Preheat Air Fryer: Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C).
- Prepare the Coating: In a shallow bowl, combine the pork panko, grated Parmesan cheese, smoked paprika, black pepper, garlic powder, and salt. Mix well to combine.
- Prepare the Pork Chops: Pat the pork chops dry with a paper towel. Spray each chop generously with tallow spray (or another cooking spray) to help the coating adhere.
- Coat the Pork Chops: Press each pork chop into the pork panko mixture, making sure both sides are evenly coated.
- Air Fry the Pork Chops:
- Place the coated pork chops in the air fryer basket in a single layer, making sure they don’t overlap.
- Cook at 400°F (200°C) for 20 minutes, flipping halfway through (at the 10-minute mark) for even crispiness.
- The pork chops should be golden brown and have an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C) when done.
- Serve: Remove from the air fryer and allow the pork chops to rest for a few minutes before serving.
Enjoy your crispy, flavorful Air Fried Parmesan Panko Pork Chops!
