Ingredients

2 boneless pork chops 3/4 inch thick
1 packet shake and bake mix
1 large egg beaten
Avocado oil

Instructions

Preheat your air fryer to 400ºF (204ºC) for 5 minutes.
Prepare the Shake n’ Bake station. Place the shake and bake mix into a large Ziploc bag. In another shallow dish or plate, beat the large egg until well-combined.
Bread the boneless pork chops. Pat dry the pork chops. Dip in beaten egg, and let any excess drip off. Transfer to the Ziploc and seal. Finally, shake the bag to coat the pork chops.
Air fry shake and bake pork chops. Gently move the breaded pork chops to the air fryer in one layer, with no overlapping. Spray with avocado oil. Next, cook at 400ºF (204ºC) for 10 - 13 minutes, flipping them halfway. After flipping, spray the other side as well.
Check the internal temperature of the pork chops with a meat thermometer. Fully cooked pork should reach 145ºF (63ºC). If not, air fry for an additional 1 - 2 minutes.
Once they're done, carefully remove the boneless pork chops from the air fryer and let them rest for 3 - 5 minutes before serving.
Serve and enjoy your air-fried Shake and Bake Pork Chops alongside your favorite side dishes.

Notes

Considering that cooking time varies depending on the meat's thickness (and your air fryer's specs), always check with a meat thermometer if your pork is cooked thoroughly. The pork's safe internal temperature is a minimum of 145ºF (63ºC).
If your air fryer doesn't have a preheating option, you can set the temperature to 380°F (193°C) and then let it cook for 4-5 minutes without food.
You can skip preheating by adding 2-4 minutes to your cooking time. Increment gradually to prevent burning the shake and bake pork chops.
I used a 6-quart (air fryer) to test the shake and bake pork chops. Cooking time and temperature may vary depending on your air fryer and the number of servings you are making. For optimal results, begin with the lower end of the suggested cooking time.
