You’ll Need

2 large pork chops
500g potatoes, cut into chunky cubes
1 red pepper, sliced
1 small onion, sliced
1 tbsp olive oil
For the Cajun Seasoning
1 tsp smoked paprika
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp onion powder
1 tsp dried oregano
½ tsp chilli flakes
1 tsp sea salt
½ tsp black pepper
To Finish
Fresh parsley
Lemon wedges
Optional but Dangerous
Garlic mayo
BBQ sauce
Fried eggs
Jalapeños

Method

1 - Preheat your air fryer to 200°C. 2 - In a bowl, mix together the smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, oregano, chilli flakes, salt, and black pepper. 3 - Toss the potatoes with half the olive oil and half the seasoning mix. 4 - Add the potatoes to the air fryer basket and cook for 8 minutes. 5 - Rub the pork chops with the remaining olive oil and remaining Cajun seasoning. 6 - Add the sliced peppers and onions to the basket. 7 - Place the pork chops on top and air fry everything together for 10–12 minutes, turning the pork chops halfway through. 8 - Continue cooking until the pork is beautifully coloured and the potatoes are crisp and golden. 9 - For extra colour and smoky edges, blast everything for a final 2 minutes at 205°C. 10 - Allow the pork chops to rest for 2–3 minutes before serving. 11 - Finish with fresh parsley and lemon wedges. Serve immediately with the potatoes piled underneath and any dangerous extras you're using.

Lad Tip: Cajun seasoning loves pork because the fat carries all those spices properly. Don't be frightened if the pork looks slightly dark around the edges. That's not burning. That's flavour moving into the neighbourhood.
