Ingredients

  • 4 pieces Pork chops (boneless)
  • 1 cup Almond flour
  • 0.5 cup Parmesan cheese (grated)
  • 2 large Eggs
  • 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon Paprika
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
  • 0.25 cup Olive oil

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

Step 2

Prepare a baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper or lightly greasing it with olive oil.

Step 3

In a shallow bowl or plate, combine almond flour, grated Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper.

Step 4

In another shallow bowl, whisk the eggs until they are well beaten.

Step 5

Dip each pork chop first into the egg mixture, ensuring it is completely coated.

Step 6

Next, dredge the pork chop in the almond flour mixture, pressing down to ensure an even coating.

Step 7

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.

Step 8

Once the oil is hot, add the coated pork chops and sear them for about 2-3 minutes on each side, until they are golden brown.

Step 9

Transfer the seared pork chops to the prepared baking sheet.

Step 10

Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 10-15 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the pork reads 145°F (63°C) on a meat thermometer.

Step 11

Remove the pork chops from the oven and let them rest for 5 minutes before serving.

Step 12

Serve the crispy fried pork with your choice of low-carb sides, such as steamed vegetables or a fresh green salad.
