Ingredients
  

  • 4- 1 " pork chops bone in
  • 1 cup pork rinds crushed
  • 1 cup fresh parsley chopped
  • ½ cup olive oil
  • 2 T dijon mustard
  • 2 teaspoon dried thyme
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper

Instructions
 

  • Position your oven rack 6" from the heat source to prepare for broiling.
  • Mix all ingredients together, to make the coating, except the pork chops
  • Press each pork chop into the coating mixture, flip to cover the other side, then place the pork chops on a baking sheet covered with aluminum foil.
  • Broil the pork chops 3 minutes (or until light brown) and flip the chops.
  • Repeat and broil the other side for 3 minutes also.
  • Turn the oven to 350, move the keto pork chops to the center rack, and finish baking until the internal temperature reaches 145, which will take about 12-15 minutes. Check the temperature after 10 minutes to make sure you don't over cook the pork chops.
  • Let rest for a few minutes before serving and enjoy!

Notes

If you want a substitute instead of pork rinds, making an almond flour crust also works well. Substitute 1 C pork rinds for 1 C almond flour. The crust won't get at crisp, but the flavor will still be fantastic! We've made this both ways and the almond flour crust browns quicker than the pork rinds crust so you'll need to keep a closer eye to make sure it isn't browning too fast during broiling.
Other types of dried herbs can be substituted like basil or Italian seasoning.
Any type of mustard will also work for the dijon like yellow mustard or stone ground mustard.
We used the Trader Joes french cut bone-in pork chops but standard grocery store bone-in chops will work just as well!
