This is lovely comfort food for a mid week dinner.  You can't go wrong with pork chops in the air fryer and the breaded seasoning would work nicely with chicken as well.

A note about the gluten free bread crumbs.  I make my own, saving up crusts and smaller pieces of gluten free bread in the freezer.  When I have a bag full, I thaw, and blitz them in the food processor to use for various dishes.  These bread crumbs are then put back into the freezer - it does not affect the flavor or texture what so ever.

With this dish, I wanted a finer bread crumb coating.  So I took out the required amount, thawed the crumbs and blitzed them in a small blender with the herbs/spices to create a finer crumb.

The amounts here will easily cover 4 pork chops. (we use bone in loin chops)

2/3 cup gluten free bread crumbs

1 tsp. fresh lemon thyme

1 1/2 tsp. dried oregano

1/2 tsp. paprika

1/2 tsp. garlic powder

salt and fresh cracked pepper to taste

1/4 cup Parmesan cheese - add after the bread crumbs and seasoning have been blitzed to a finer crumb.

Blitz up the bread crumbs and seasonings in a blender to create a fine crumb.  Pour onto a plate and add 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese, mixing with a fork.

Preheat the air fry for 5 minutes at 400 degrees.  Pat dry the pork chops and add to the plate of seasoned crumbs, pressing the chops firmly to coat both sides evenly.

Depending on the size of the pork chops they will need 15-18 minutes to cook - until they reach 145 degrees using an instant read thermometer.

Serve with any side dishes.
