Step 1

Sprinkle pork chops with salt and pepper. Place flour in a shallow dish. Beat eggs in a separate shallow dish. Combine panko, Parmesan, 1 1/2 Tbsp. parsley, the lemon zest, and garlic powder in a third shallow dish.

Step 2

One at a time, dredge pork chops in flour, shaking off excess; then turn in the egg; and finally dredge in the panko mixture, pressing to adhere. Set pork chops aside.

Step 3

Set the basket in place in an air fryer. Close the lid and program the air fryer to 400°F for 8 minutes. Preheat according to instructions for your air fryer.

Step 4

Evenly spray tops of pork chops with cooking spray. Add 2 pork chops to the air fryer basket, oiled side up (you may have to cook 1 chop at a time if you’re using a smaller air fryer; they should not be touching). Cook chops, turning them over halfway through cooking, until they’re browned and crispy and an instant-read thermometer registers about 145°F when inserted into the thickest part (or until they're done the way you like), about 8 minutes total. Add time if needed. Transfer pork chops to a platter and loosely drape with foil.

Step 5

Repeat to cook the remaining 2 pork chops, omitting the preheating step. Add pork chops to the platter. Sprinkle with parsley and serve with lemon wedges.
