Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Pork cutlets
- 1 cup Almond flour
- 1 tablespoon Coconut flour
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 large Eggs
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 4 optional for serving Lemon wedges
Instructions
Preheat a large skillet over medium-high heat with olive oil.
Pound the pork cutlets to about 1/4 inch thickness to ensure even cooking.
In a shallow bowl, combine almond flour, coconut flour, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Stir until evenly mixed.
In another shallow bowl, beat the eggs until the yolks and whites are fully combined.
Dip each pork cutlet into the beaten eggs, ensuring it is completely coated, then transfer to the almond flour mixture.
Press the cutlet into the almond flour mixture, turning to coat both sides evenly, pressing the mixture onto the cutlet to adhere.
Gently place the breaded cutlet into the hot skillet. Fry for about 3-4 minutes on each side or until golden brown and the internal temperature of the pork reaches 145°F (63°C).
Remove the cutlet from the skillet and place it on a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil.
Repeat the coating and cooking process with the remaining cutlets, adding more oil to the skillet as necessary.
Serve hot with optional lemon wedges for added freshness.
