Preheat your oven to 375Β°F (190Β°C).
In a shallow bowl, combine the almond flour, coconut flour, garlic powder, paprika, salt, black pepper, and onion powder. Mix well to ensure even seasoning.
In another shallow bowl, beat the two large eggs until they are fully mixed.
Dip each pork chop into the beaten eggs, making sure to fully coat both sides.
Next, press the egg-coated pork chop into the almond flour mixture, turning to coat both sides. Press the mixture onto the pork to ensure it adheres well.
In a large skillet over medium heat, melt 2 tablespoons of the coconut oil. Once hot, add two of the breaded pork chops to the pan.
Cook the pork chops for about 4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown, then transfer them to a baking sheet.
Repeat the process with the remaining 2 tablespoons of coconut oil and the other two pork chops.
Once all pork chops are seared, place them in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes to ensure they are cooked through.
Remove the pork chops from the oven and let them rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Garnish with fresh parsley before serving to add color and a hint of freshness.
