Thin or Thick Pork Chops
Both types of cuts of pork will work for this recipe. For Crispy Air Fryer Pork Chops, thinner pork chops and boneless pork chops, cook a little faster and make delicious golden pork chops.
Because thicker pork chops may take a little longer to air fry, so use a meat thermometer and watch the internal temperature so they stay juicy pork chops. Either way, it’s your preference to which thickness of pork chops you use.
How to Make Air Fryer Breaded Pork Chops
- Preheat Air Fryer to 390F for 5 minutes
- In a shallow medium bowl whisk together the egg and water.
- In a shallow, separate bowl, to make the dry mixture, combine the flour, cheese, and seasonings.
- Pat pork chops dry with a paper towel. Then, dredge the pork chop in the egg mixture, coating both sides.
- Once coated with egg, dredge each piece of meat through the second bowl with flour and seasoning mix, coating both sides.
- Spray the inside of the air fryer basket with non-stick cooking spray and place chops in basket in a single layer.
- Air fry at 390F for 13-15 minutes flipping it halfway through air frying cooking process. If using thinner chops, adjust cook time by 1-2 minutes.
- Remove from the basket when meat thermometer reads an internal temperature of at least 145F.
- Let pork chops rest about 5 minutes before cutting. Season pork chops with your favorite seasonings.
I make this recipe in my Cosori 5.8 qt. air fryer. Depending on your size and wattages, cooking times may need to be adjusted a couple of minutes.

Notes
Nutrition
Nutrition information is automatically calculated, so should only be used as an approximation.
IMO, it is better to spray the food items lightly than to spray the fryer surface.
As for the breaded pork chops, there is enough fat in the egg that a cook can go without adding any oil.
