Ingredients

1/3 cup almond flour
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon Creole seasoning
1 teaspoon paprika
4 boneless pork loin chops (6 ounces each)
Cooking spray

Directions

Preheat air fryer to 375°. In a shallow bowl, toss almond flour, cheese, garlic powder, Creole seasoning and paprika. Coat pork chops with flour mixture; shake off excess. Working in batches as needed, place chops in single layer on greased tray in air-fryer basket; spritz with cooking spray.
Cook until golden brown, 12-15 minutes or until a thermometer reads 145°, turning halfway through cooking and spritzing with additional cooking spray. Remove and keep warm. Repeat with remaining chops.

Air Fryer Pork Chop Tips

How do you cook pork chops without drying them out?

To cook pork chops without drying them out, coat them in a breading or flour mixture, which seals in moisture. Also, be sure not to overcook them. The internal temperature should be 145°.

How do you make pork chops tender?

To make pork chops tender, you can soak them in milk for 2-6 hours before coating with the flour mixture. The calcium and lactic acid in the milk interacts with the enzymes of the meat and helps break them down.

What do I do if my pork chops are tough?

If your pork chops turn out tough, slice the meat very thinly and add it to your next stir-fry or casserole. The extra liquid and fat in these dishes will help slightly rehydrate the meat.

How do you get batter to stick to pork chops?

To get the batter to stick to the pork chops, first spritz with cooking spray. Want more air fryer recipes? Check out our must-try recipes, including chocolate chip cookies, ravioli and fajitas! Research contributed by Sarah Fischer, Taste of Home Culinary Assistant
