Ingredients
- 4 pieces Veal cutlets
- 1 cup Almond flour
- 0.5 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 large Eggs
- 2 tablespoons Heavy cream
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 cup Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
Directions
Step 1
Place veal cutlets between two sheets of plastic wrap. Pound them gently with a meat mallet or rolling pin until they are about 1/4 inch thick.
Step 2
In a shallow dish, combine almond flour, grated Parmesan cheese, salt, black pepper, paprika, and garlic powder.
Step 3
In another shallow dish, whisk together eggs and heavy cream until smooth.
Step 4
Dip each veal cutlet into the egg mixture, ensuring it is well-coated, then dredge in the almond flour mixture, pressing lightly to adhere.
Step 5
Heat olive oil and butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once the butter has melted and the mixture is hot, add the veal cutlets.
Step 6
Cook the cutlets for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and cooked through.
Step 7
Remove the schnitzels from the skillet and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil.
Step 8
Serve hot with a wedge of lemon or your favorite low-carb side dish.
