Ingredients

• 4 pieces pork chops
• 1 cup almond flour
• 0.5 cup parmesan cheese, grated
• 1 large egg
• 2 tablespoons heavy cream
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon onion powder
• 0.5 teaspoon paprika
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 tablespoons olive oil

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

In a shallow dish, combine the almond flour, grated parmesan cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper.

Step 3

In another shallow dish, whisk together the egg and heavy cream until well combined.

Step 4

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

Step 5

One at a time, dip each pork chop into the egg mixture, ensuring it is well coated.

Step 6

Then, dredge the pork chop in the almond flour mixture, pressing down slightly to adhere the coating to each side of the chop.

Step 7

In a large oven-safe skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat.

Step 8

Once the oil is hot, add the breaded pork chops to the skillet. Sear for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown.

Step 9

Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 15 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the pork chops reaches 145°F (63°C).

Step 10

Remove the skillet from the oven and let the pork chops rest for 5 minutes before serving. This will ensure they remain juicy and tender.

Step 11

Serve with your favorite low-carb side dish, such as roasted vegetables or a fresh salad.
