Ingredients
- 4 boneless pork sirloin chops (each about 1/4 inch thick)
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup breadcrumbs (preferably panko for extra crispiness)
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- Cooking spray (or a light drizzle of olive oil)
Instructions
1. Flour: In the first dish, add one cup of flour seasoned with 1/2 teaspoon of salt, 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper, and 1 teaspoon of garlic powder.
2. Eggs: In the second dish, beat two large eggs with a pinch of salt and a dash of paprika for added flavor.
3. Breadcrumbs: In the third dish, combine one cup of breadcrumbs (preferably panko) with 1 teaspoon of garlic powder and 1 teaspoon of onion powder.
4. Preheat the Air Fryer: Preheat your air fryer to 360°F for 3-5 minutes.
5. Arrange the Cutlets: Place the breaded cutlets in the air fryer basket. Make sure not to overcrowd the basket; cook in batches if necessary.
6. Cook: Cook the cutlets for 9-12 minutes, depending on thickness. Flip the cutlets halfway through the cooking time to ensure even browning.
7. Check for Doneness: The cutlets should be golden brown and have an internal temperature of at least 145°F.
Notes
For best results, avoid overcrowding the air fryer basket. This ensures that the cutlets cook evenly and become perfectly crispy. Additionally, flipping the cutlets halfway through cooking helps achieve an even, golden crust on both sides.
