Ingredients
- 4 pieces Bone-in pork chops
- 1 cup Almond flour
- 0.5 cup Parmesan cheese, finely grated
- 2 large Eggs
- 2 tablespoons Heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 cup Olive oil or avocado oil
Directions
Step 1
Begin by patting the pork chops dry with paper towels. This helps the coating adhere better.
Step 2
In a shallow dish, combine the almond flour, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to distribute the spices evenly.
Step 3
In another bowl, whisk together the eggs and heavy cream until smooth.
Step 4
Dip each pork chop into the egg mixture, ensuring both sides are coated.
Step 5
Transfer the egg-coated pork chop to the almond flour mixture, pressing down to ensure a good layer of the coating adheres to both sides. Shake off any excess.
Step 6
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Use enough oil to cover the bottom of the pan well.
Step 7
Once the oil is hot, carefully add the pork chops to the skillet. Avoid overcrowding the pan; if necessary, do this in batches.
Step 8
Fry the pork chops for about 4-5 minutes on each side until they are golden brown and crispy. The internal temperature should read 145°F (63°C) when done.
Step 9
Remove the cooked pork chops from the skillet and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.
Step 10
Let the pork chops rest for a few minutes before serving to allow the juices to redistribute, ensuring a juicy bite.
Step 11
Serve hot and enjoy your delicious and crispy Keto-friendly pork chops!
