Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Pork chops, bone-in
- 1 cup Almond flour
- 0.5 cup Parmesan cheese, finely grated
- 2 large Eggs
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
In a shallow bowl, combine the almond flour, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper, stirring until well mixed.
In another bowl, beat the eggs until smooth and set aside.
Pat the pork chops dry with paper towels to ensure the breading adheres well.
Dip each pork chop into the beaten eggs, making sure both sides are fully coated.
Next, transfer the egg-coated pork chop to the almond flour mixture, pressing down gently to ensure a thick, even coating on all sides. Repeat with remaining chops.
Heat the olive oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the breaded pork chops, searing each side until golden brown, about 3 minutes per side.
Transfer the skillet with the pork chops to the preheated oven and bake for about 12-15 minutes until the pork chops reach an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C) and are cooked through.
Remove from the oven and let the pork chops rest for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy your low carb crispy breaded pork chops with a side salad or steamed vegetables!
