Air Fryer Tonkatsu
- Cook Time: 20 Mins
- Serves: 2
Directions
- Toast the panko: add the panko to a dry non-stick pan over medium heat. Drizzle with oil and stir, toasting until golden and crisp. Remove from the pan and let cool.
- Season both sides of the pork chops with salt and freshly ground pepper. Dust with flour on all sides, shaking off the excess.
- Dip the floured chops into the lightly beaten egg then coat with panko, pressing to make sure it’s completely coated.
- Preheat the air fryer to 400°F. Fry the katsu for 10-15 minutes, depending on size, flipping halfway. The internal temperature should reach 145°F. Remove from the air fryer and let rest for 5 minutes before slicing into strips.
- Serve with thinly sliced cabbage, rice, and plenty of Bachan’s Original Dipping Sauce or Bachan’s Sweet and Spicy Dipping sauce for an extra kick.
Note: for thin pork chops, cook at 375°F for 8-9 minutes, flipping halfway.
