  3. Bread the cutlets

    • Dip each cutlet in the egg wash, letting the excess run off.
    • Coat evenly on both sides in the bread crumbs.
    • Shake off the excess breading so it doesn't burn in the pan.
    Step 3
  4. Fry the cutlets

    • Heat the oil in a large pan.
    • Fry the cutlets, flipping once the edges are golden brown.
    • They are thin, so they cook quickly.

  5. Drain and serve

    • Drain the cutlets on a wire rack or paper towels.
    • Sprinkle with a little salt right out of the oil if you like.
