Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces pork chops
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoon dried thyme
- 0.5 teaspoon dried rosemary
- 2 cups chicken broth
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons almond flour
- 0.25 cup heavy cream
Instructions
Season both sides of the pork chops with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, thyme, and rosemary.
In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the seasoned pork chops to the pan.
Cook pork chops for about 4-5 minutes on each side or until they are golden brown and reach an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C). Remove from the skillet and set aside on a plate, covered with aluminum foil to keep warm.
In the same skillet, melt the butter over medium heat, scraping up any bits from the bottom of the pan.
Sprinkle almond flour over the melted butter and whisk constantly for about 1-2 minutes, until it is lightly browned and has a nutty aroma.
Gradually pour in the chicken broth while continuing to whisk, ensuring no lumps form.
Let the mixture simmer for about 5-7 minutes, or until the gravy thickens to your desired consistency.
Stir in the heavy cream and let it simmer for another 1-2 minutes.
Taste the gravy and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper if necessary.
Return the pork chops to the skillet, spooning the gravy over them, and let them warm through for about 2 minutes.
Serve the pork chops hot with the gravy ladled over the top.
