Yields4 ServingsPrep Time10 minsCook Time30 minsTotal Time40 mins

Pork chops are a classic dish, and totally keto, but they risk being boring. These pork chops are flavored with lime juice, oregano, and garlic, and surrounded with onions, peppers, and olives, making them anything but bland slabs of meat. Serve with a creamy cucumber salad or celery root fries.
