Low Carb Hemp Pork Chops and Green Beans

Description

This satisfying dinner offers a delightful combination of textures and flavors, perfect for those seeking a protein-rich and lower-carb meal. Imagine tender, thin-sliced pork chops enveloped in a savory breading of parmesan and hemp seeds, creating a crispy exterior that gives way to a juicy interior. The parmesan lends a salty, umami note, while the hemp seeds contribute a subtle nutty flavor and satisfying crunch.

Complementing the pork chops are vibrant green beans, sautéed to tender-crisp perfection in butter. The butter adds a rich, luxurious element, enhancing the natural sweetness of the green beans. Toasted almonds are scattered throughout, providing a delightful textural contrast and a nutty aroma that fills the air.

Adding a touch of smokiness and irresistible crunch, crispy bacon bits are sprinkled over the ensemble, bringing savory notes that tie all the elements together. The hemp seeds not only contribute to the wonderful flavor and texture but also provide a boost of nutrients, including magnesium, healthy fats, fiber, and protein. This dish is carefully balanced to provide a satisfying and nourishing meal.

For optimal results, ensure the green beans are cooked gently to maintain their vibrant color and crisp-tender texture. While fresh green beans are ideal, frozen green beans can be used. Make sure you thaw them completely before cooking.

For those looking to further enrich the dish, consider adding a creamy sauce. A mushroom sauce with earthy notes, a classic white cream sauce, or a rich hollandaise would complement the pork and green beans beautifully. Incorporating plenty of butter and cream will elevate the sauce, adding an extra layer of indulgence to this already delicious meal.

Instructions

    1.
    Pat thin-sliced pork chops dry with a paper towel and lay a piece of parchment paper over them. Pound the pork chops thin with a cooking mallet. Then, rub teaspoon olive oil into each side of each pork chop, totaling 1 teaspoon oil per serving.
    2.
    Combine parmesan cheese, hemp seeds, salt, pepper, onion powder, garlic powder, and paprika on a plate (you may want to double these ingredients just to ensure you have enough to work with). Use a pair of tongs to lift and press each pork chop into the hemp seed breading. Make sure the pork chops are completely coated before continuing.
    3.
    Heat avocado oil in a non-stick pan over medium-high heat until the oil is hot. Place the breaded pork chops in the oil, and cook them for about 5 minutes per side. You can adjust the heat as necessary to avoid burning the pork chops.
    4.
    Set the cooked pork chops aside to cool on a serving plate, but return the pan back to your stove. Dice the bacon and cook it in the same pan on high heat. Cook the bacon until it \[--SNIP--] since their last tour in 345. On Thursday, May 16, 2024, 807 music enthusiasts from all over are expected to see the show in New York.
