Breadcrumbs Air Fryer Boneless Pork Chops: A Delicious Twist on a Classic Recipe

As I stood in my kitchen, surrounded by the familiar sounds of sizzling meat and savory aromas wafting through the air, I couldn't help but think of my grandmother, Genievefka. She was the master of cooking up a storm, and her boneless pork chops were always a crowd-pleaser. But today, I was on a mission to recreate her recipe using an air fryer instead of traditional frying methods.

The process began by preparing the breadcrumb mixture. In a gallon zip-top bag, I combined panko breadcrumbs, fine breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, and onion powder. The result was a flavorful blend that would add a satisfying crunch to my pork chops.

Next, I marinated four boneless pork chops in a mixture of seasonings, including paprika, celery seasoning, and garlic powder. This would intensify the flavor without adding extra salt, a common issue when cooking with breadcrumbs.

Once the pork chops were coated in the breadcrumb mixture, I dipped them in an egg wash made from half & half, eggs, and milk. The resulting crust was both crispy and juicy, with just the right amount of seasoning.

To cook the pork chops, I preheated my air fryer to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C) for two minutes. Then, I placed the coated pork chops in the basket, making sure not to overcrowd it. Cooking time was approximately 10-12 minutes, flipping halfway through to ensure even cooking.

The end result was a deliciously crispy exterior, paired with juicy and flavorful interior. It was clear that my grandmother would be proud of this adaptation of her classic recipe. And as I served the pork chops to my family and friends, I knew that they would be just as delighted by the dish as I was.

In conclusion, using breadcrumbs in an air fryer to make boneless pork chops is a game-changer for anyone looking for a quick and easy dinner recipe that's both delicious and crowd-pleasing. With its crispy exterior and juicy interior, this adaptation of my grandmother's classic recipe is sure to become a new favorite in your household.
