Ingredients for air fryer pork chops
- Center-cut pork chops – My favorite cut for this recipe is center-cut, but if you use bone-in, ensure the pork chop’s internal temperature is 145 degrees F when it’s done.
- Butter – This will add fat and juiciness to our pork chops.
- Fresh sage – Fresh is best! Sage is a classic herb that is often paired with pork.
- Garlic – A classic ingredient that will add earthiness to the dish.
- Salt and black pepper – These seasonings are important to ensure the pork is extra flavorful.
Using bone-in pork chops
I’ve used center-cut pork chops here, but if you prefer bone-in, remember that they will take a bit longer to cook.
And remember, pork is done when the internal temperature of the chop reaches 145 degrees F.
