How Long Does It Take to Cook Pork Chops in an Air Fryer?
Pork chops can take anywhere between 12-20 minutes to cook in an air fryer. This would depend how thick the pork chops are. I would suggest checking a few times during the cooking process. If you’re cooking bone-in pork chops, it might take a bit longer than boneless.
Pork Temperature
Chops are done when the internal temperature registers 145°F on your meat thermometer.
At the moment, I use the Thermapen for the thermometer. As a less expensive alternative, you can find other thermometer options on Amazon.

How Do You Preheat an Air Fryer?
Depending on the model of the Air fryer you have, your Air Fryer may already include a preheating setting. It usually comes in a form of a button, which you can click and wait for it to notify you.
If you don’t have have a preheating setting, just preheat it manually. Simply set the Air Fryer temperature to 350F and give it about 2-3 minutes to worm up.
Can You Stack Meat in an Air Fryer?
The meat should not be stacked in the air fryer. Since the cooking is done by the circulation of air, stacking meat will prevent the air fryer from cooking the food properly. If you really must stack meat in the air fryer, move things around every 5 minutes to allow all sides to cook, and increase the overall cooking time to make sure the food has enough time to cook.
