German Pork ChopsI have really fond memories of my grandpa making this dish. I can still picture him in the kitchen on a Sunday evening, cooking and listening to a Perry Como tape. He didn’t cook all that often (Grandma was the chef of the family!), but he had a few wonderful recipes up his sleeve. He also made Swedish Meatballs, and that’s another recipe that always reminds me of him. My grandpa made recipes his grandmother taught him, and now I make them to remember him. It makes me wonder, what dishes will my great-great-grandkids learn that were passed down by me?

VideoNotes
How long does it take for pork chops to cook in air fryer?Place pork chops in a single layer in the preheated air fryer basket. Air fry at 400° F for 5 minutes. Then flip the pork chops over and continue cooking until they are cooked through to at least 145° F, about 3-7 more minutes for boneless chops or 6-10 more minutes for bone-in chops.
Can sauerkraut be cooked in an air fryer?Sharing is caring! Sausage and sauerkraut are one of my husband's favorite meals. Making Kielbasa, Potatoes and Sauerkraut in the air fryer is the easiest way to make smaller portions of this classic meal.
Can you put raw pork chops in an air fryer?Place in Air Fryer basket making sure the chops don't overlap. Cook on 360 degrees for 14-16 minutes, flipping halfway. Pork chops are done when they have reached an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit. Remove pork chops from the Air Fryer and loosely cover with foil.
Why are my air fryer pork chops tough?If your pork chops are tough, it is probably because you overcooked them. My secret trick, as I talked about earlier, is to cook the pork chops to an internal temperature of 140°F, and then take them out of the air fryer basket and let the pork chops rest until the internal temperature hits 145°F.
