Ingredients
- 4 pieces pork chops (bone-in)
- 1 cup almond flour
- 0.5 cup parmesan cheese, finely grated
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 2 large eggs
- 0.25 cup olive oil
Directions
Step 1
Place the pork chops on a cutting board and pat them dry with paper towels.
Step 2
In a shallow bowl, combine almond flour, parmesan cheese, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Stir the dry ingredients until well combined.
Step 3
In another bowl, beat the eggs until they are evenly mixed.
Step 4
Dip each pork chop into the beaten eggs, ensuring both sides are coated.
Step 5
Then dip the egg-coated pork chop into the almond flour mixture, pressing lightly to adhere the coating evenly on all sides.
Step 6
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Step 7
Carefully place the coated pork chops into the skillet. Cook each side for about 5-7 minutes, or until golden brown and the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C).
Step 8
Once cooked, remove the pork chops from the skillet and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to absorb any excess oil.
Step 9
Let the pork chops rest for a few minutes before serving to allow juices to redistribute.
