1

Preheat the air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for 5 minutes so the basket gets properly hot.

2

While the air fryer heats, line up the green beans on the cutting board and slice off the stem ends.

3

Toss the trimmed beans in a large mixing bowl with olive oil and salt until every bean is glossy.

4

Spread the beans in the hot basket and air fry 6 minutes, shaking once, until bright green and blistered in spots.

5

While the beans cook, mince the garlic and halve the lemon on the cutting board.

6

Stir the grated parmesan, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, paprika, and black pepper together in a small bowl.

7

Pat the pork chops dry with paper towels, lay them on a large plate, and brush Dijon thinly over both sides.

8

Sprinkle half the parmesan mixture over the chops and press it on firmly, then flip and coat the second side.

9

Shake the basket, scatter the garlic over the beans, toss with tongs, and air fry 2 minutes until the garlic turns pale gold.

10

Tip the beans into a serving dish, squeeze one lemon half over them, and cover loosely with foil.

11

Lower the air fryer to 380°F (195°C), lay the chops in the basket, and drizzle the tops with olive oil.

12

Air fry 6 minutes until the top crust is golden and the cheese smells nutty and toasted.

13

While the chops cook, halve the tomatoes and dice the cucumber, then toss in the mixing bowl with olive oil, the remaining lemon half, oregano, and salt.

14

Flip the chops gently with tongs and air fry 5 to 6 minutes until deep golden and a thermometer reads 145°F in the center.

15

Rest the chops on a clean plate for 5 minutes, sliding the beans back into the basket to rewarm for 2 minutes.

16

Plate each chop with a heap of garlicky green beans and a spoonful of tomato-cucumber salad, spooning the salad juices over the beans.
