Crispy Pork Chops

Crispy Pork Chops


For those meat lovers, this is a quick and easy way to make juicy pork chops.  


Ingredients: ( serves 4-5) 

4 Pork chops ( bone in or boneless), bone in are more juicy.
2 eggs
about 1 cup Gluten free flour ( I use rice flour or almond meal) or use your own regular flour
2 TSP garlic powder 
2 TSP onion powder
Sea salt and pepper



I  beat the 2 eggs in a large bowl , set aside.

I have a second bowl with my flour mix that I add the garlic powder, onion powder, and salt & pepper.

First dredge the chops in the egg mixture.  Then dredge into the flour mixture and coat both sides.  Once they are all ready to go, I  transfer to a heated skillet with some heated coconut oil in the pan.  (Make sure your pan is hot and sizzles before adding pork.  Just shake a few flour bits into the oil and see if it sizzles)

***This is where I love my George Foreman Grill.  It heats up fast and cooks both sides with little oil.  I spray some coconut oil from a can.  It's just like "Pam" only better.  Or you can use Olive oil.
All lined up on my George Foreman Grill.  They cook in about 8 minutes.  I check them and spray a bit more oil if needed.


If you are not on a Gluten free diet, I recommend using unbleached whole wheat flour.  It is so much better for you.  Just like the name, bleached white flour is bleached! I can't say that is very healthy for your body to consume bleached food!  I'm not a huge fan of processed foods in general, For the most part, like to use almond flour.  It is just ground up almonds.  You can use any nuts and put them in your food processor and use them as bread crumbs.  It's a great healthy alternative.

I serve this up with sweet potato fries and roasted veggies.  YUM!
Try this out and see how you like it.
