Cuisine: American
Prep Time: 6 minutes
Cook Time: 12 to 14 minutes
Total Time: 18 to 20 minutes
Servings: 2

Ingredients

• 2 pork chops, bone-in and about 1 1/2 to 2 inches thick
• 2 tablespoons brown sugar
• 1 tablespoon smoked paprika
• 1 teaspoon ground mustard
• 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
• 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 tablespoon cooking oil (I used olive oil)

Here's how to make it: 

1. Combine the brown sugar, smoked paprika, ground mustard, onion powder and garlic powder in a small bowl.
2. Season the pork chops on both sides with salt and black pepper. Drizzle both sides with the cooking oil.
3. Coat both sides of the pork chops with the seasoning blend. (I used all of the seasoning blend.)
4. Put the pork chops into a preheated 400-degree F air fryer basket.
5. Air fry for about 12 to 14 minutes, turning the pork chops over halfway through, or until cooked through. Pork is cooked through at 145 degrees F internal temperature on a food thermometer. (If your pork chops are thinner or thicker, adjust the cooking time.)
6. Serve immediately for the juiciest pork chops.
