Ingredients
- 4 pieces boneless pork chops
- 1 cup almond flour
- 0.5 cup unsweetened shredded coconut
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons coconut oil
- 2 large eggs
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a shallow dish, combine almond flour, shredded coconut, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to form the breading.
Step 3
In another shallow dish, beat the eggs until well blended.
Step 4
Pat the pork chops dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture.
Step 5
Dip each pork chop into the egg wash, ensuring it is completely coated.
Step 6
Immediately dredge the egg-coated pork chop in the almond flour mixture, pressing down to help the breading adhere. Ensure all sides are evenly coated.
Step 7
In a large skillet, heat coconut oil over medium heat. Once hot, add the breaded pork chops, cooking for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown.
Step 8
Transfer the browned pork chops to the prepared baking sheet.
Step 9
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 12-15 minutes or until the pork chops have reached an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C).
Step 10
Remove from oven and let the pork chops rest for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy your Whole30 breaded pork chops with your choice of compliant side dishes!
