Servings: 4
Ingredients
- 4 boneless pork chops
- 2 tablespoons butter
Dredging Mixture for Pork Chops:
- ⅓ cup Blanched Almond Flour
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
Sauce:
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- ½ cup Parmesan cheese, (or ¼ cup almond flour, or ¼ teaspoon Xanthan Gum)
- ½ cup dry white wine
- ¼ lemon
- ½ cup chicken stock, (sodium free)
- ½ cup heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 4 sprigs fresh thyme, leaves only
Instructions
- Dry mixture: In a large bowl, whisk together almond flour, garlic powder, onion powder, Italian seasoning.
- Cooking pork chops: First, season pork chops generously with salt and pepper. Then dredge them thoroughly in dry mixture. Heat 2 tablespoons butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
- Once the pan is hot, add pork chops. Now sear them by cooking for 3-4 minutes per side for a total of 6-8 minutes. First side is cooked on medium high. But when cooking on the second side, reduce the heat to medium. After searing is done, remove pork from heat and transfer to a plate. Cover to keep warm.
- Creamy garlic & herb sauce: Return skillet to heat and add butter and minced garlic. Cook for 1-2 minutes on medium heat.
- Next ad wine and squeeze lemon into the pan while still on medium heat. Now add chicken stock and heavy cream. Bring to a boiling point and lower heat. Cook on low for 2-3 minutes.
- Add fresh thyme and Italian seasoning, season with salt and pepper (to taste). Also add Parmesan cheese and then simmer for 2-3 minutes. Next taste the sauce and add more seasoning, if necessary.
- Adding pork chops to the sauce. Reduce heat to low and return pork chops to pan. Depending on the thickness of your pork chops, you might just need to heat them up a bit to make sure they are done.
- Drizzle some of the sauce over pork chops and reheat on low for 2-3 minutes or until pork chops are done.
