Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Pork loin cutlets
- 1 cup Almond flour
- 0.5 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 large Eggs
- 2 tablespoons Heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 4 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
Instructions
Place each pork cutlet between two pieces of plastic wrap. Pound them to about 1/4 inch thickness using a meat mallet.
In a shallow dish, combine almond flour, grated Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well.
In another shallow dish, whisk together eggs and heavy cream until fully combined.
Dip each pork cutlet first into the egg mixture, allowing any excess to drip off, and then dredge in the almond flour mixture, pressing to adhere.
In a large skillet over medium heat, heat olive oil and unsalted butter until melted and hot.
Carefully place the breaded pork cutlets into the skillet. Cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side or until golden brown and cooked through.
Remove the cutlets from the skillet and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to remove any excess oil.
Serve the cutlets hot with your choice of keto-friendly sides, such as steamed vegetables or a fresh salad.
