Preheat the Air Fryer: Set your air fryer to 375°F, ensuring it’s preheated if necessary according to your appliance’s instructions.
Season the Pork Chops: Pat the pork chops dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture. Sprinkle salt generously on both sides of the chops. In a small bowl, combine brown sugar, ground cumin, and ground coriander. Coat the pork chops evenly with the spice mixture, rubbing it gently to ensure full coverage. For maximum flavor, consider seasoning the chops up to 12 hours in advance. If doing so, refrigerate the seasoned chops uncovered, allowing the salt and sugar to tenderize and infuse the meat. When ready to cook, allow the pork chops to come to room temperature.
Cook the Pork Chops: Place the seasoned pork chops in the air fryer basket. Cook them for about 5 minutes per side, or until the pork is golden brown and cooked through. Flip the chops halfway through the cooking process for even browning.
Rest Before Serving: Once the pork chops are cooked, allow them to rest for 5 minutes before slicing. This step ensures the juices remain inside the meat, resulting in a moist and tender chop.
