Ingredients
- 4 pieces Pork chops
- 1 cup Almond flour
- 1 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- 2 large Eggs
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 cup Coconut oil
- 4 pieces Lemon wedges
Directions
Step 1
Start by patting the pork chops dry with paper towels. This helps the coating stick better.
Step 2
In a shallow dish, combine the almond flour, Parmesan cheese, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika. Mix well to ensure even distribution of spices.
Step 3
In another shallow dish, beat the eggs. This will act as the wet mixture for coating the pork chops.
Step 4
Dip each pork chop into the beaten eggs, making sure to coat all surfaces.
Step 5
Next, transfer the pork chop to the almond flour mixture, pressing the coating firmly onto the meat. Flip to ensure both sides are well-coated.
Step 6
Repeat the coating process for all pork chops and set aside on a large plate.
Step 7
In a deep frying pan or large skillet, add the coconut oil and heat over medium-high heat. The oil should be hot but not smoking, ideally around 350°F (175°C).
Step 8
Carefully place the pork chops into the hot oil, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan. Fry in batches if necessary.
Step 9
Cook each pork chop for about 6-8 minutes per side, or until golden brown and crispy. Internal temperature of the pork should reach 145°F (63°C).
Step 10
Once cooked, transfer the pork chops to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
Step 11
Serve immediately with lemon wedges on the side for that extra zing before eating.
