Air Fryer Panko Crusted Pork Chops Food

AIR FRYER PANKO-CRUSTED PORK CHOPS

Steps:

• Pour 1 cup water in a 4-cup microwave-safe measuring cup. Microwave until boiling, about 4 minutes. Stir in kosher salt and sugar, until dissolved. Add remaining 3 cups water to make a brine.
• Place rosemary sprig and bay leaf in a 1-gallon zip-top bag. Carefully pour in brine and add pork chops. Seal the bag, removing as much air as possible, and refrigerate about 2 hours.
• Remove chops from the brine and discard the brine. Pat chops dry with paper towels.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Break egg into a shallow bowl and beat lightly. Combine panko, grated Parmesan, Italian seasoning blend, and black pepper, and place on a plate or cutting board. Dip each pork chop in the egg, then coat all sides with the panko mixture. Spray both sides of the coated chops with extra-virgin olive oil.
• Place chops in the air fryer in a single layer, with chops not touching, and air-fry for 7 to 8 minutes per side, for a total of 14 to 16 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of the chops should read 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).
• Serve warm, garnished with parsley and additional rosemary sprigs, if desired.

• Preheat a 3.5-quart air fryer to 360 degrees F.
• Sprinkle the pork chops on both sides with salt and pepper. Dredge one at a time, first in the flour, shaking of excess, then in the egg, letting excess drip off, followed by the cornflake mixture. Transfer to a large platter. Repeat with the remaining pork chops.
• Working in 2 batches, add the chops to the fryer basket and cook until cooked through, about 10 minutes.
