If you prefer breading on your pork chops, this pork rind coating will keep it keto for you. Add in some seasonings and some Parmesan cheese and it will taste even better than the boxed and processed brand of coating you may be used to.
The air fryer will crisp up any fat on the edges and seal in all of the chop’s natural juices. I know everyone in my family loves pork and they love these breaded pork chops with a side of cauliflower mock potato salad.
