Tips for Perfect Keto Pork Chops

  1. Use a Meat Thermometer: Want perfectly cooked pork chops every time? A meat thermometer is your best friend. Pork should reach an internal temperature of 145°F. This ensures juicy, tender meat without any guesswork.
  2. Grate Your Own Cheese: Skip the pre-shredded cheese! It often has additives that can mess with the texture and flavor of your dish. For the best taste, grate your cheese from a block. Trust me, it’s worth the extra effort.
  3. Add Veggies: Pork chops love company! Try adding some veggies like asparagus, chopped cauliflower, cauliflower rice, broccoli, or green beans. Sauté them in the same skillet before making the sauce to boost the nutrition and flavor of your meal.
  4. Season to Taste: The seasoning in the recipe is just a starting point. Feel free to tweak the amounts of Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper to suit your taste. Make it your own!
