Instructions

Step 1

Preheat an air fryer to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).

Step 2

Stir together eggs, oil, and salt in a small bowl.

Step 3

Place panko crumbs on a separate plate.

Step 4

Dip each pork chop into the egg mixture, allowing excess to drip back into the bowl, then turn chops in panko crumbs.

Step 5

Cover the top of the chop with crumbs and press down to encourage them to stick.

Step 6

Spray both sides of each pork chop with cooking spray and place 2 chops into the air fryer basket.

Step 7

Air fry for 6 minutes, then flip and cook until golden brown and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center reads 145 degrees F (63 degrees C), about 5 minutes more.

Step 8

Transfer chops to a plate and keep warm, then repeat with remaining chops.

Step 9

Serve chops with rice, shredded cabbage, and tonkatsu sauce.

Pro Tips

#1

Press the panko crumbs firmly into the pork to ensure an even, crispy coating.

#2

Use an instant-read thermometer to ensure the pork reaches an internal temperature of 145 degrees F.

#3

Work in batches to avoid overcrowding the air fryer basket for the best results.

#4

Spray the chops thoroughly with cooking oil to help achieve a golden-brown color.
