Ingredients
- 4 pieces pork cutlets
- 0.5 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
- 2 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 1 cup breadcrumbs
- 0.25 cups parmesan cheese, grated
- 0.5 teaspoon paprika
- 0.25 cup vegetable oil
- 4 pieces lemon wedges
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
Directions
Step 1
Place each pork cutlet between two pieces of plastic wrap and pound gently with a meat mallet until they are about 1/4 inch thick.
Step 2
In a shallow dish, combine the flour, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Mix well.
Step 3
In a second shallow dish, whisk together the eggs and milk until fully combined.
Step 4
In a third shallow dish, combine the breadcrumbs, grated parmesan cheese, and paprika.
Step 5
Dredge each pork cutlet in the flour mixture, ensuring it is evenly coated. Shake off any excess flour.
Step 6
Dip the floured cutlet into the egg mixture, allowing any excess to drip off.
Step 7
Finally, coat the cutlet in the breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently to make sure the coating sticks.
Step 8
Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Step 9
Once the oil is hot, add the breaded pork cutlets to the skillet. Cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and fully cooked. Work in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding the pan.
Step 10
Transfer the cooked cutlets to a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil.
Step 11
Garnish with chopped fresh parsley and serve with lemon wedges on the side for squeezing over the cutlets.
