Ingredients
- 2 pieces boneless pork chops
- 2 tablespoons olive oil

- 0.5 teaspoons paprika

Instructions
Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for 5 minutes.
In a small bowl, mix together salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, dried thyme, and dried rosemary.
Pat the pork chops dry with paper towels to ensure a crispy crust.
Rub each pork chop with 1 tablespoon of olive oil and then evenly coat them with the spice mixture, pressing gently to adhere.
Place the pork chops in the air fryer basket, ensuring they are not overlapping or touching for even cooking.
Cook the pork chops in the air fryer at 400°F (200°C) for 12-15 minutes, flipping them halfway through the cooking time. The internal temperature should reach 145°F (63°C).
Once done, let the pork chops rest for 3-5 minutes before serving to retain their juices.
