Easy 15-Minute Air Fryer Pork Chops for Dinner!

Looking for an easy dinner recipe? Make easy Ranch Pork Chops in your air fryer in just 15 minutes. This recipe is adapted from one of our favorite grilled pork chops recipes and it turned out amazingly perfect in the air fryer – maybe even better!

Pork Chops Money-Saving Tip

You can buy a pork loin and slice it into your own pork chops! This tip can really save you some money! And you can freeze the extra pork chops to thaw and cook another time.

The amount of pork chops you can air fryer at one time will depend on the size of your air fryer basket. I can fit 4 pork chops, each about 4 ounces, in the Philips XXL or Cosori 5.8QT air fryer.

How Long to Cook Pork Chops in the Air Fryer

After 10 minutes in the air fryer, these pork chops were done to perfection. Not dry or overcooked and not too pink either. Perfectly done, flavorful, and juicy.

Note that cooking time may vary depending on your air fryer and the thickness of your pork chops. The pork chops I use are about 1 inch thick. It is easy to adjust air fryer cooking time though! Check the pork with an instant read thermometer and if it is 145°F, it’s done. If it isn’t there yet, just keep air frying for another minute or two.

Healthy Homemade Ranch Seasoning Mix

I use this homemade Ranch seasoning mix recipe on pork chops and more. Easy to make a batch, then store it in the refrigerator until needed.

• 1/3 cup dry powdered buttermilk
• 2 tablespoons dried parsley
• 1 1/2 teaspoons dried dill weed
• 2 teaspoons garlic powder
• 2 teaspoons onion powder
• 2 teaspoons dried minced onion
• 1 teaspoon dried chives
• 1 teaspoon pepper
• 1 teaspoon salt

It’s nice to have a healthier homemade version of Ranch dressing mix that can be used in pretty much any recipe that calls for the store-bought packet.
