Air Fryer Pork Schnitzel with Cabbage-Apple Slaw

Ingredients

> 1 lb boneless pork chops
> 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
> 2 large eggs
> 1 1/2 cups panko bread crumbs
> Cooking spray
> 1 Honeycrisp apple
> 3 tbsp olive oil
> 2 tbsp apple cider vinegar
> 1 tsp stone ground mustard
> 1 (12 oz) bag vegetable slaw
> 2 tbsp chopped fresh basil

Steps

1
Preheat air fryer to 400°F. Cover pork chops with plastic wrap and pound with a mallet until ¼-inch thick. Season with salt and pepper.
2
To a shallow bowl, add flour. In a second shallow bowl, beat eggs with a pinch of salt. To a third shallow bowl, add bread crumbs and season with salt and pepper. Working with one pork chop at a time, dredge in flour, shaking off any excess. Dip pork chop in beaten eggs, letting any excess drip off, and then coat in bread crumbs, pressing to adhere.
3
Lightly coat both sides of breaded pork chops with cooking spray. Working in batches if necessary, add pork chops to air fryer basket in a single layer. Cook until golden brown and internal temperature reaches 145°F, 8–12 minutes, flipping halfway through.
4
Meanwhile, core and cut apple into matchsticks. In a large bowl, combine oil, vinegar and mustard. Season with salt and pepper. Add apple, slaw, and basil. Toss to combine. Serve apple slaw alongside schnitzel.
