Low Carb Spiced Rum Pork Chops
How to Make It
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Add the rum, maple-flavored syrup, tomato paste, allspice, garlic powder, tamari sauce, a tablespoon of olive oil and a pinch of salt and pepper to a small saucepan. Set over a low heat and mix well to combine. Heat through until gently simmering. Sprinkle over the xanthan gum and whisk into the sauce until slightly thickened and you have a glossy glaze.
Step 2
Heat a tablespoon of olive oil in an ovenproof skillet over a medium heat. Season the pork chops on both sides with salt and pepper. Place the pork chops in the skillet and cook for 2 minutes on each side to brown.
Step 3
Brush the rum glaze evenly over the browned pork chops, liberally coating them on both sides. Transfer to the oven and bake for 10 minutes or until the chops are entirely cooked through. Serve hot with your preferred Keto sides.
