Ingredients

• 2 pieces Pork chops
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 0.5 cup Almond flour
• 0.25 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon Onion powder
• 1 teaspoon Paprika
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for about 5 minutes.

Step 2

Pat the pork chops dry with paper towels to remove any excess moisture.

Step 3

Brush each pork chop with olive oil on both sides.

Step 4

In a shallow dish, combine the almond flour, grated Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to ensure that the ingredients are evenly distributed.

Step 5

Dredge each oil-coated pork chop into the almond flour mixture, ensuring it is completely covered. Press the mixture onto the pork chops to make sure it adheres well.

Step 6

Spray the air fryer basket with nonstick cooking spray. Place the breaded pork chops in the air fryer basket in a single layer, making sure not to overlap them.

Step 7

Cook the pork chops in the air fryer at 400°F (200°C) for 12-15 minutes. Turn them halfway through cooking to ensure even browning.

Step 8

Check the internal temperature of the pork chops to ensure they reach at least 145°F (63°C) for safety.

Step 9

Once cooked, let the pork chops rest for a few minutes before serving to allow the juices to redistribute.

Step 10

Serve the air-fried pork chops with your favorite low-carb sides.
