Ingredients

• 2 large boneless pork loin chops (1 ½ inches thick)
• 1 cup almond flour

Instructions

1. Season the pork chops with salt and pepper on both sides. Lay them out on a flat surface.
2. Prepare three shallow dishes for breading. Fill the first dish with almond flour, the second with beaten eggs, and the third with processed coconut flakes.
3. Dredge each pork chop in the almond flour, then egg, and finally the coconut flakes, pressing gently to adhere the coating. Set aside on a clean plate.

5. In another pan, melt butter and sauté garlic until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add heavy cream and bring to a simmer. Lower the heat and stir in Parmesan cheese, seasoning with salt and pepper.
