  • 2 tbsp Olive oil For rubbing on the pork chops.
  • 1 tsp Salt Adjust to taste.
  • 1 tsp Pepper Adjust to taste.

Preparation
  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) or preheat the air fryer.
  2. Rub the pork chops with olive oil and season both sides with salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika.
Cooking
  1. Place the pork chops in a baking dish or air fryer basket.
  2. Bake in the oven for 20-25 minutes, or in the air fryer for about 12-15 minutes, until they reach an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C).
  3. Let the pork chops rest for a few minutes before serving.

Notes

For best results, use a meat thermometer to ensure the internal temperature is perfect. Marinate the pork chops in the seasoning overnight for even more flavor. Consider searing them in a skillet for a crispy crust.
