Ingredients

• 4 pieces Boneless pork chops
• 1 cup Almond flour
• 1 cup Crushed pork rinds
• 0.5 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
• 2 large Eggs
• 2 tablespoons Heavy cream
• 1 teaspoon Paprika
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 0.5 cup Avocado oil or ghee (for frying)
• 4 pieces Lemon wedges (for serving)

Directions

Step 1

Prepare the pork chops by placing each chop between two pieces of plastic wrap or parchment paper. Pound them with a meat mallet until they are about 1/4 inch thick.

Step 2

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

Step 3

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

Step 4

Dip each pounded pork chop into the egg mixture, letting any excess drip off, and then coat it thoroughly in the almond flour mixture. Press the coating onto the pork to ensure it sticks.

Step 5

Heat the avocado oil or ghee in a large skillet over medium-high heat. The oil should be roughly 1/4 inch deep in the pan; adjust the amount as needed.

Step 6

Once the oil is hot, carefully place 1-2 breaded pork chops in the pan (do not overcrowd the skillet). Fry for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through.

Step 7

Transfer the cooked pork chops to a plate lined with paper towels to soak up any excess oil while you cook the remaining chops.

Step 8

Serve the Keto Wienerschnitzel immediately with lemon wedges on the side for squeezing over the top.
