Smothered Pork Chops

Servings: 4 servings

Ingredients
  

  • 6 bone-in or boneless pork chops of desired thickness (we suggest at least 4 to 6 ounces if boneless and about 8 ounces if bone-in)
  • ½ cup almond flour
  • 2 tbsp coconut flour
  • 1 tbsp garlic powder
  • 1 tbsp onion powder
  • 1 tsp salt
  • ½ tsp chipotle powder or cayenne pepper
  • ¼ tsp smoked paprika
  • ¼ tsp freshly ground black pepper
  • 2 tbsp oil or cooking fat of choice
  • 2 yellow onions, peeled and thinly sliced
  • 1 cup chicken stock
  • ½ cup unsweetened coconut milk

Method
 

  1. Rinse the pork chops under cold water and pat dry.
  2. Mix together the almond flour, coconut flour, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, chipotle powder, paprika and pepper in a small bowl and then pour onto a large plate. Dredge the chops in the flour mixture, shaking off the excess, and place on a clean plate.
  3. Reserve the remaining flour mixture.
  4. Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  5. Once the oil is barely smoking, add the pork chops and cook for 3 to 4 minutes per side, or until golden brown.
  6. Remove the chops from the skillet and set aside. (You may need to cook the pork chops in batches, depending on the size of your skillet.)
  7. Add the onions to the skillet used to cook the pork chops and deglaze (stir to loosen up any browned bits) over medium heat.
  8. Cook until the onions are well browned, about 10 minutes.
  9. Sprinkle the remaining flour mixture over the onions, add the chicken stock and whisk to combine.
  10. Simmer for about 5 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken a bit, and then stir in the coconut milk.
  11. Place the pork chops back into the skillet, spooning the onion sauce over them. Allow them to simmer for 5 to 7 minutes, or until the pork is cooked through.
