Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces pork chops (bone-in)
- 1 cup almond flour
- 0.5 cup parmesan cheese, finely grated
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 2 large eggs
- 0.25 cup olive oil
Instructions
Place the pork chops on a cutting board and pat them dry with paper towels.
In a shallow bowl, combine almond flour, parmesan cheese, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Stir the dry ingredients until well combined.
In another bowl, beat the eggs until they are evenly mixed.
Dip each pork chop into the beaten eggs, ensuring both sides are coated.
Then dip the egg-coated pork chop into the almond flour mixture, pressing lightly to adhere the coating evenly on all sides.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Carefully place the coated pork chops into the skillet. Cook each side for about 5-7 minutes, or until golden brown and the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C).
Once cooked, remove the pork chops from the skillet and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to absorb any excess oil.
Let the pork chops rest for a few minutes before serving to allow juices to redistribute.
