Parmesan Crumbed Fried Pork Chops
- 2 large thick sliced pork chops
- A pinch of coarse salt (per side)
- A pinch of freshly ground black pepper (per side)
Crust
- ± 2 cups finely grated Parmesan cheese
- ± 1 cup Panko Bread Crumbs
- 2–3 tsp Italian seasoning mix
Instructions
- Wash and spice the pork chops on both sides with salt and pepper as desired.
- Add to Air Fryer (Besile 7.0QT Large Hot Air Fryer) and bake at 370F/187C for 20 minutes but flip the meat over after 10 minutes.
- Continue to bake and complete the 20 minutes.
- In the meantime, prepare the crust by mixing the parmesan, Panko, and seasoning mix in a deep dish. You can use whatever quantities you like, but I used a 1:2 ratio of crumbs to cheese. The seasoning you can also adjust to taste.

- After 20 minutes in the AF at 370F pull the tray out, use roughly ¼ of the mix per chop, and press it on the cooked meat while still in the AF.
Parmesan pork chop crumbed - No need to take it out, just add the mixture and press it firmly down on the half-cooked meat.
- Return to the AF, now at 400F/200C, and continue to bake for 10 minutes (per side) until you have a nice brown color.
- Flip the meat over, cover the other side with the rest of the crumbs, and continue to bake for 10 more minutes.
Parmesan crumbed baked pork chop served - I use Silicone Air Fryer Liners (much easier to clean the AF) but feel free to do it directly on the AF rack.
- Serve once ready and done to your liking.
