WHY ARE MY AIR FRYER PORK CHOPS TOUGH?
Pork chops become tough simply because they are overcooked. Pork chops being a lean-cut meat mean that it can be cooked quickly… this would also mean that it can be overcooked easily.
Here's a little secret to avoid tough pork chops: use a probe thermometer, when your pork chop is at 145°F, it's going to be juicy, tender, and of course with a touch of pink inside.
Keep in mind, not all pork chops have the same cook time. The thinner it is, the quicker it cooks.
