Easy Mediterranean-Inspired Air Fryer Pork Bowls

A greek salad, salty seasoned meat, and rice. What could be easier and more delicious.

This recipe is quick, simple, and has everything you need for a complete, well-balanced meal: vegetables, protein, carbs, and….cheese.

I wanted something easy to go with a Greek salad, so I quickly seasoned some pork, threw it in the air fryer, heated up some rice, and created these bowls!

This recipe is well-loved in our household and I hope you enjoy it as much as we do!

Mediterranean Air Fryer Pork Bowl Recipe

Serves: 2.

Ingredients:

• Cooked rice

For the pork chops:

• 2 boneless pork chops, cut into ½ inch cubes (you could also use chicken, steak, or salmon)

• ¾ teaspoon salt

• ¾ teaspoon ground black pepper

• ½ teaspoon paprika

• ½ teaspoon onion powder

• ½ teaspoon garlic powder

For the salad:

• 1 small cucumber, cut into ¼ inch cubes

• 1 red bell pepper, cut into ¼ inch slices

• ¼ cup red onion, diced

• ¼ cup feta

For the dressing:

• ⅓ cup extra-virgin olive oil, or avocado oil

• ¼ cup red or white wine vinegar

• 1 teaspoon honey

• 1 clove garlic, minced

• ¼ teaspoon salt

• ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper

• ½ teaspoon dried or fresh oregano

What To Do:

1. Combine all salad ingredients.

2. Combine all dressing ingredients.

3. Add ¼ cup of the dressing to the salad and toss.
