Allow it to cool and then add the grated Parmesan cheese. Stir to mix.
In another shallow dish, scramble 1-2 eggs. Begin dipping pork chops in the egg and shake off any excess.
Then coat each pork chop with the panko-Parmesan mixture. Press panko into the pork chop to ensure it sticks.
Lightly spray the air fryer basket with oil using a non-aerosol oil spray bottle. Place the breaded pork chops inside the basket.
Set the air fryer timer to 400 degrees Fahrenheit and the timer to 6 minutes.
