Instructions
1. Prepare the Marinade
In a medium bowl, whisk together the olive oil, soy sauce, honey, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper.
2. Marinate the Pork
Add the cubed pork chops to the bowl and toss to coat evenly. Let the pork marinate for 15–20 minutes to soak up the flavors.
3. Preheat the Air Fryer
Set your air fryer to 400°F (200°C) and preheat it for about 3 minutes.
4. Cook the Pork
Place the marinated pork cubes in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Avoid overcrowding to ensure even cooking. Air fry for 10–12 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through for an even crisp.
5. Serve and Enjoy
Once the pork bites are golden brown and crispy, remove them from the air fryer. Let them rest for a couple of minutes before serving. Pair them with your favorite dipping sauce, such as honey mustard, ranch, or spicy mayo.
Pro Tips
- Customize the Flavor: Add a pinch of cayenne for heat or swap honey with maple syrup for a different twist.
- Check for Doneness: Use a meat thermometer to ensure the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C).
- Batch Cooking: If making more, cook in batches to avoid overcrowding the air fryer basket.
