Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Pork loin chops
- 1 cup Almond flour
- 0.5 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- 2 large Eggs
- 2 tablespoons Heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.5 cup Avocado oil
- 4 pieces Lemon wedges, for serving
Instructions
Place the pork loin chops between two sheets of plastic wrap. Gently pound with a meat mallet until about 1/4 inch thick.
In a shallow dish, combine almond flour, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, black pepper, and paprika. Mix well.
In another shallow dish, whisk together the eggs and heavy cream until well blended.
Dip each pork chop into the egg mixture, ensuring it is fully coated, then press it into the almond flour mixture, covering both sides evenly.
Heat avocado oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot, carefully add the breaded pork chops.
Cook the pork schnitzels for approximately 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
Once cooked, remove the schnitzels from the skillet and place on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
Serve immediately with lemon wedges on the side for a zesty kick.
