Ingredients

• 4 slices Pork loins
• 1 cup Almond flour
• 0.5 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
• 2 large Eggs
• 1 tablespoon Heavy cream
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
• 2 tablespoons Butter
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 4 pieces Lemon wedges
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped

Directions

Step 1

Begin by placing the pork loins between two pieces of plastic wrap or parchment paper. Using a meat mallet or rolling pin, gently pound each slice to an even thickness of about 1/4 inch.

Step 2

In a shallow bowl, combine almond flour, grated Parmesan cheese, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Mix well.

Step 3

In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs and heavy cream until smooth.

Step 4

Dip each pork slice into the egg mixture, ensuring it is fully coated.

Step 5

Transfer the egg-coated pork to the almond flour mixture, pressing down lightly to adhere the coating. Turn and repeat to coat all sides. Shake off any excess.

Step 6

Heat the butter and olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat until the butter is melted and bubbling.

Step 7

Carefully place the coated pork slices into the skillet. Cook for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and cooked through.

Step 8

Remove schnitzels from the skillet and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to absorb any excess oil.

Step 9

Serve immediately, garnished with chopped fresh parsley and lemon wedges for squeezing on top.
