Ingredients
- 4 thin pork chops
- Salt & pepper to taste
- ½ cup flour
- 1 egg
- ¾ cup Panko bread crumbs
- ¼ cup parmesan cheese grated
- ¾ teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon dried basil
- ¼ teaspoon oregano
Instructions
- Preheat the air fryer to 375 degrees. Trim excess fat off pork chops and salt and pepper them to taste.
- Add flour to one bowl, the egg to a second bowl, and the panko, parmesan, garlic powder, basil, and oregano to a third bowl.
- Beat the egg in one dish. In the breading dish, mix the panko mixture well.
- Dip both sides of the pork chops into the flour, then the egg, then the panko mixture. Lightly spray with an olive oil or cooking spray to help them crisp.
- Place the pork chops single layered in the air fryer. If you make more than 3-4 chops, you may need to split them up for space as they should not be layered.
- Once in air fryer, cook for 8 minutes, then flip, and cook for an additional 8 minutes on the other side or until pork chops are crispy and internal temperature has reached 145 degrees F.
