The EASIEST, most delicious way to fry up a pork chop is in the air fryer. They come out perfectly crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside, and are foolproof truly. Just use a meat thermometer if you wanna be sure!

Dip in my maple mustard sauce (or make it a “honey” mustard sauce!) and you will never make a pork chop another way ever again, promise.

Grab some thick cut chops for this one! Makes the best juicy bite with the crisp outside. Cannot wait for y’all to try!

Ingredients

For the Pork Chops

  • 4 boneless pork chops thick cut about 1"
  • avocado oil spray
  • chili powder
  • garlic powder
  • onion powder
  • salt
  • black pepper

For the Maple Mustard Sauce

  • 2 tbsp Dijon mustard
  • 2 tbsp pure maple syrup or raw honey
  • 1/2 tsp hot sauce
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 1/2 tsp Italian herb seasoning

Instructions

  • Pat the pork chops dry and arrange on an air fryer tray in a single layer. Spray with avocado oil on the top side, and sprinkle with the seasonings to your taste (I do about 1/4 tsp per chop, per side).
    Air fry at 450ºF for 10 minutes, then flip and repeat with the avocado oil and seasonings on the other side. Continue to cook for 5-10 minutes more (depending on the thickness of your pork chops) until the internal temp reads about 145ºF.
  • While the pork chops cook, add the sauce ingredients to a small bowl and stir until smooth and combined.
  • Serve the pork chops drizzled with the sauce, or serve it on the side for dipping. Great on your veggies & roasted potatoes, too! Enjoy!
