Ingredients

Instructions

  1. 1. Preheat the air fryer to 180 °C. This takes about 3 minutes.
  2. 2. Pat the 400 g pork chops dry with paper towels. Never wash them, as this spreads germs.
  3. 3. Rub 1 tsp salt and 1 tsp pepper evenly over both sides of the chops.
  4. 4. Finely chop the garlic clove. Be careful: Finely chopped garlic burns quickly.
  5. 5. Cut the 20 g butter into small cubes. This helps it melt faster later.
  6. 6. Place the seasoned pork chops flat in the air fryer basket. Ensure there is space between the pieces.
  7. 7. Cook the pork chops at 180 °C for 10 minutes. Turn them halfway through until the surface is firm and golden brown.
  8. 8. Briefly remove the pork chops from the air fryer and place them on a plate. They aren't cooked through yet.
  9. 9. Melt the 20 g butter in a small pan over medium heat. It should foam, but not brown.
  10. 10. Stir the finely chopped garlic, 1 tsp horseradish, and 1 tsp lemon juice into the butter.
  11. 11. Generously brush the pork chops with the warm butter-horseradish sauce. Cover all meat surfaces.
  12. 12. Sprinkle 1 tsp paprika evenly over the juicy pork chops. This adds colour and flavour.
  13. 13. Place the pork chops back into the air fryer. Cook for another 3 minutes at 180 °C.
  14. 14. Let the pork chops rest on the plate for 2 minutes. This allows the juices to redistribute evenly.
  15. 15. Serve the pork chops immediately. They are perfect when the crust is crispy and the meat is juicy.
