Ingredients
- 4 pieces Bone-in pork chops
- 2 large Eggs
- 1 cup Almond flour
- 0.5 cup Coconut flour
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 cup Avocado oil
Directions
Step 1
Begin by placing each pork chop between two sheets of plastic wrap. Using a meat mallet, pound the pork chops to about 1/2 inch thickness for even cooking.
Step 2
In a shallow bowl, beat the eggs until well combined.
Step 3
In another shallow dish, mix together the almond flour, coconut flour, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper.
Step 4
Heat the avocado oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until it's shimmering but not smoking.
Step 5
Dip each pork chop first into the beaten eggs, allowing any excess to drip off, and then dredge in the flour mixture, pressing the mixture onto the pork chop to ensure it adheres well.
Step 6
Place two to three pork chops in the skillet, depending on size, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan. Fry for about 4-5 minutes on each side or until the coating is golden brown and the pork chops are cooked through to an internal temperature of 145°F.
Step 7
Transfer the cooked pork chops to a plate lined with paper towels to drain off any excess oil.
Step 8
Repeat the frying process with the remaining pork chops, adding more oil to the skillet if necessary.
Step 9
Let the pork chops rest for a few minutes before serving to allow the juices to redistribute. Serve warm and enjoy!
