INGREDIENTS FOR BREADED PORK CHOPS IN AIR FRYER Boneless Pork Chops - My Cosori air fryer fits four boneless pork chops perfectly. We used a standard ¾ inch thick pork chop for this recipe. Thinner pork chops may not work as well, since they cook much quicker. To start, clean your chops and pat them dry so that the breading sticks to them really well. Garlic Powder - So much flavor comes from this simple seasoning. Smoked Paprika - I love this spice on all types of meat. Because the paprika is smoked, it gives a smoky flavor without needing to use a smoker. Salt and Pepper - These basic seasonings go a long way to making flavorful pork chops. Breadcrumbs - Regular breadcrumbs, rather than panko crumbs work best here to create a traditional breaded pork chops. Italian Seasoning - A blend of Italian herbs is one of my favorite shortcuts. Egg and Water - to get the breading to stick to the pork, we'll use a watered down scrambled egg wash. If you have any questions, please leave a comment below and I will get back to you ASAP!
