These Shake and Bake Pork Chops (Air Fryer and Oven) are made with pork chops, paprika, parmesan, thyme, and served with lemon wedges.

I know we make a ton of pork chops, one of my favorite's being these BBQ Pork Chops on the stove. You need to try this one if you like a nice spice to it AND if you can handle it!

These pork chops are very satisfying and are super healthy. The combination of the paprika, shake and bake, and parmesan is to die for. This is an easy sheet pan oven baked pork chops and they are super family friendly. I used only a teaspoon of paprika, but if you like the spice feel free to use more. If you have space on the baking sheet, feel free to add some vegetables for a side dish.

If you love this breaded meats, you should try my Pork Chops Scarpariello.

Air Fryer: Preheat the air fryer to 400°F. Air fry the pork chops for 12-15 minutes, depending on the thickness of the pork, flipping once halfway. Oven: Place pork chops on a foil lined shallow baking dish and bake on middle rack at 325°F for 25 minutes, turning over after 15 minutes. Then, place pan in broiler (or top rack with oven on broil) for 3 minutes.

Substitutions

  • Shake and Bake: I love shake and bake, although you can use use panko crumbs for these.
  • Parmesan cheese: I used regular kraft parmesan cheese but any brand will work, as long as its thinly grated. 
  • Paprika: The key ingredient in this is adding a little spice to it. I love paprika because it has that smoky flavor that compliments the pork chops. Chili powder would work as well. 
  • Thyme: You can use fresh thyme leaves although I used dried thyme. 
  • Lemon: For best quality use lemon juice from real lemons. 

Variations

Cooking is a chance to be creative! Have fun with it and feel free to make your own variation.

  • Spicy - add chili pepper flakes in the shake and bake mix.
  • Deluxe - add serve with tzatziki.
  • Kid friendly - add crushed potato chips into the bread crumb mixture.

Equipment

Equipment can have a big impact on how a recipe turns out. Stone bakeware takes longer to heat up than metal pans, and also retain heat for longer, which could make the recipe more watery, or burnt on the outsides.

I love using my Caraway pots, pans and baking sheets for best quality. Get yourself a discount by clicking here!

Storage

This will be good in the refrigerator for 2-3 days.

These Air Fryer Shake and Bake Pork Chops can be frozen for up to three months.

Top tip

Use a meat thermometer to make sure it is cooked perfectly. The measurement should be 145°F.
