I have a very basic air fryer that I've never used. Thought I'd finally give it a try and cook some boneless thin pork chops I have in it. Would really appreciate suggestions on how long I should cook them and at what temperature. This particular fryer has a maximum temp of 395. Thanks for any help.

@qualityshopper Your air fryer didn't come w/a recipe booklet?
If not, look up your brand/model on the WWW to find recipes for it.

For half inch thick boneless chops about 5 minutes on one side,
4 or so on other side...temp around 400 depending on your fryer. They get done very quickly.

Whenever I am unsure on what temperature or how long to cook anything in my air fryer, which is frequently. I Google to find the correct info. So far it has not steered me wrong.
Good luck!

Ugh..........pork chops. I can never figure out how to cook them other than Shake N Bake. Enjoy yours!

@cindyNC I love Shake and Bake on my pork chops and they cook great in the air fryer.

I think 400* is good, but I would start out with only 2 or 3 minutes per side . Remember that meat continues to cook after the heat is off--- I just cooked a regular thickness,3/4 inch, chops for the recommended time at 400* and they were over cooked--I think it was 4-5 minutes per side--I would take them out after the first side is done, cut into them and if they are pinkish, I'd say they would be prefect after sitting a bit. And pork can be pink now days too--not rare but ....pinkish.

@qualityshopper - I agree with the advice provided by @wagirl. And for what it's worth, I've been surprised that the primary function of my air fryer has become cooking meats; it's amazing how well they turn out and how little smell/smoke is emitted compared to cooking on a grill pan.

@Mz iMac --I thoroughly read my manual. It had suggested cooking times, as well as some recipes. Unfortunately, the suggested time and temp for pork chops was just a general one. It didn't get into how to adjust depending on the thickness.

@icezeus --I didn't get so lucky when I googled. I did find some answers, but they varied quite a bit, which left me still unsure how long and what temp. For example, I saw some suggestions to set the fryer at 400. Well, mine doesn't even go up that high. Of course, I don't think that would be a good temp for thin chops anyway, but that's just my opinion.
