Ingredients
- 4 pieces boneless pork chops
- 1 cup almond flour
- 2 tablespoons coconut flour
- 3 large eggs
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.25 cup coconut oil
Directions
Step 1
Using a meat mallet or rolling pin, pound the pork chops between two pieces of parchment paper until they are about 1/4 inch thick.
Step 2
In a shallow dish, mix the almond flour, coconut flour, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper to create the breading mixture.
Step 3
In another shallow dish, whisk together the eggs with the Dijon mustard until well combined.
Step 4
Dip each piece of pork into the egg mixture, ensuring it is fully coated, then press both sides into the almond flour mixture to coat evenly.
Step 5
Heat the coconut oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Step 6
Once the oil is hot, add the breaded pork chops to the skillet. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side or until the crust is golden brown and the pork is cooked through.
Step 7
Remove the cooked schnitzels from the skillet and place on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.
Step 8
Serve immediately with a side of Whole30-compliant greens or salad.
