Air Fryer Tuscan Pork Chops (Porchetta-Inspired)

Air Fryer Tuscan Pork Chops (Porchetta-Inspired)

Porchetta vibes, weeknight effort. These air fryer pork chops take inspiration from classic Italian porchetta—herb-forward, savory, and citrus-finished—but skip the long prep. Tuscan Experience brings rosemary, garlic, and warm herbs, while the air fryer delivers a crisp exterior and juicy center in minutes. A squeeze of fresh lemon at the end pulls everything together.

This is one of those recipes that tastes fancy without asking much from you. Less labor. More flavor.

Ingredients

  • 4 pork chops (1-inch thick)
  • 1½ Tbsp Tuscan Experience
  • 1 Tbsp olive oil
  • 1 lemon, cut into wedges

Instructions

  1. Rub the pork chops on both sides with olive oil and Tuscan Experience.
  2. Air fry at 400°F for 12–15 minutes, flipping halfway through, until cooked through and nicely browned.
  3. Let rest for 3 minutes, then finish with a generous squeeze of fresh lemon.

Why Tuscan Experience Works Here

The blend’s herb-forward profile mimics the flavors you’d expect from porchetta—savory, aromatic, and balanced—without overpowering the pork. The lemon brightens everything and cuts through the richness for a clean finish.

Pro Move: Bone-in chops bring extra flavor; boneless cook a bit faster. Either way, don’t skip the lemon—it’s non-negotiable.

Serving Suggestions

Pair with roasted Brussels sprouts or sweet potato wedges for an easy, complete meal. These chops also slice beautifully over a simple arugula salad with olive oil and shaved parmesan.
