Start by preheating your air fryer to 400°F (200°C). If your air fryer requires preheating, make sure to do so for about 5 minutes.
Pat the pork chops dry with paper towels. This step is crucial as it helps the seasoning stick better and ensures a nice, crispy exterior.
Seasoning the Pork Chops:
In a small bowl, mix together the olive oil, garlic powder, smoked paprika, onion powder, salt, black pepper, dried thyme, dried oregano, and cayenne pepper (if using).
Brush both sides of each pork chop with the olive oil mixture. Make sure they are well coated with the seasoning for maximum flavor.
Air Frying:
Place the seasoned pork chops in the air fryer basket. Make sure they are not touching each other to ensure even cooking.
Cook for about 10 minutes, then flip the pork chops and cook for an additional 5-7 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C). The cooking time may vary depending on the thickness of your pork chops and the type of air fryer you have.
Resting:
Once cooked, remove the pork chops from the air fryer and let them rest for about 3 minutes. Resting allows the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, ensuring a juicy and tender result.
Serving:
Serve the air-fryer pork chops hot with your favorite side dishes. They pair wonderfully with mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a simple salad.
