The hot circulating air in the air fryer makes these pork chops super crispy and fantastic. It’s so easy to use these pre-made boxed shake and bake style seasoning mixes. Getting dinner or a big batch of these pork chops is super quick and easy. If you have a small air fryer you’ll have to cook in batches. But other than that, these are easy peasy to have for dinner!

Tips for Air Frying Breaded Pork Chops
- What’s the best seasoned coating mix brand? All these brands are very similar and differ in texture. Some are more coarse and some are more fine. These seasoned coating or breading mixes all work the same. The flavors are different so try a few and see what is best for your personal taste.
- How to moisten the pork before breading? Most of the shake and bake style seasoned breading mixes say to moisten the pork chops. We added the mayo part because it’s a nice option for extra moist chops. And it also helps the breading stick better.
- Different cuts and thicknesses of pork chops. This factor will determine your final cooking time. So you’ll have to adjust the timing accordingly when you make your first batch. After that, you’ll know what your preferred timing is based on your specific cut of pork chops and size of air fryer.

Air Fryer “Shake ’n Bake” Style Pork Chops
Different cuts and thicknesses of pork. This factor will determine your final cooking time. So you’ll have to adjust the timing accordingly when you make your first batch. After that, you’ll know what your preferred timing is based on your specific cut of pork chops and size of air fryer.
Most of the shake and bake style seasoned breading mixes say to moisten the chicken. The boxes often will suggest ice water, egg, &/or milk. We added the mayo part because it’s a nice option for extra moist chicken. And it also helps the breading stick better.
Ingredients
- 3 (6oz.) ((170g)) pork chops , rinsed & patted dry
- Ice water, beaten egg, milk, or mayo , to moisten the pork
- Shake ’n Bake Style Seasoned Coating Mix
- Oil spray , to coat the pork chops
Instructions
- Preheat Air Fryer at 380°F/195°C for 4 minutes.
- Moisten the pork chops based on seasoned coating mix instructions (or by using ice water, beaten egg, milk, or mayo). Coat with the seasoned coating mix.
- Spray air fryer basket/tray with oil or place a perforated parchment sheet in the air fryer basket/tray & lightly coat with oil spray (this helps keep the pork chops coating from sticking and coming off).
- Place the coated pork chops in a single layer (cook in batches if needed). Make sure pork chops are not touching or the coating may flake off when you flip them. Lightly coat the pork chops with oil spray.
- Air Fry at 380°F/195°C for about 8-12 minutes. After 6 minutes of cooking, flip the pork chops and then continue cooking for the remainder of time or until golden and internal temperature reaches 145-160°F, depending on your doneness preference.
If your air fryer is preheated or if you are cooking multiple batches, you may need to reduce timing by a few minutes (unless preheating is called for in the recipe).

Hey guys, thanks for this and crazy good and easy. I had a box of shake and bake then saw your recipe. The whole family LOVED it.Â
Oven Fry works way better than shake and bake. It gets much crispier.Â
The kids are in love with these pork chops. It’s so good. And I love that I don’t have to use so much oil.Â
