Ingredients
- 4 pork chops, cut into 1-inch cubes
- 1 large egg
- 1 cup Panko breadcrumbs
- 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 garlic cloves, minced (or 1 tablespoon garlic powder)
- ½ teaspoon salt
- Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
- Cooking spray
Instructions
- Prep the pork: Slice the pork chops into roughly 1-inch chunks. Set aside.
- Make the wet mix: In a medium bowl, whisk together the egg, minced garlic, salt, and pepper until smooth.
- Make the dry mix: In another bowl, combine the Panko breadcrumbs and Parmesan cheese.
- Coat the pork: Dip each pork piece first into the egg mixture, ensuring it’s fully coated. Then transfer it to the Panko-Parmesan mix, pressing gently so the coating sticks well.
- Air fry: Lightly spray the air fryer basket with cooking spray. Arrange the pork pieces in a single layer, leaving a little space between each piece.
- Cook to perfection: Air fry at 400°F (200°C) for 5–6 minutes, or until the pork bites are golden brown and cooked through. Serve immediately and enjoy!
