Ingredients

  • 4 pieces (about 4 oz each) veal cutlets
  • 1 cup almond flour
  • 0.5 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 tablespoons heavy cream
  • 0.5 teaspoon salt
  • 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
  • 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 0.5 teaspoon onion powder
  • 4 tablespoons coconut oil
  • 4 pieces lemon wedges
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley

Directions

Step 1

Place each veal cutlet between two pieces of plastic wrap and pound gently with a meat mallet or rolling pin until about 1/4-inch thick.

Step 2

In a shallow bowl, combine almond flour, grated Parmesan cheese, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Mix well to create the breading mixture.

Step 3

In another shallow bowl, beat the egg and add the heavy cream, mixing until fully combined.

Step 4

Dip each veal cutlet into the egg mixture, ensuring both sides are coated.

Step 5

Then, press the veal cutlets into the almond flour mixture, covering them entirely and shaking off any excess.

Step 6

Heat coconut oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Once hot, carefully add the breaded veal cutlets.

Step 7

Cook each cutlet for about 4 to 5 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through, adjusting the heat as necessary to avoid burning.

Step 8

Remove the cutlets from the skillet and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to absorb any excess oil.

Step 9

Sprinkle with fresh parsley and serve the veal cutlets with lemon wedges.

Step 10

Enjoy your delicious, low-carb breaded veal cutlets!
