- 4 thick cut, boneless pork chops
- 1 tbsp McCormick Grill Mates Montreal Chicken Seasoning (or your favorite brand of grill seasoning)
- 1/4 cup pure maple syrup
- 2 tbsp Dijon mustard
- 2 tsp fresh lemon juice
- 1/2 tsp salt
- vegetable oil for brushing
Lightly brush your air fryer basket with vegetable oil.
Dry pork chops with paper towels and sprinkle both sides evenly with the grill seasoning.
Place the pork chops in the air fryer basket in a single layer. Cook at 375°F for 12-15 minutes, flipping halfway.
Check internal temperature reaches 145°F for doneness.
While chops cook, whisk together maple syrup, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, and salt in a small bowl.
Pour the glaze over the hot pork chops immediately after removing from the air fryer.
Allow the pork chops to rest for 3 minutes before serving for maximum juiciness.
- Ensure pork chops are thick-cut (at least 1-inch) for best results.
- Do not overcrowd the air fryer basket; cook in batches if necessary.
- Use a meat thermometer to check for the perfect internal temperature of 145°F.
- Let the pork chops rest after cooking to allow juices to redistribute.
