Method

Cooking Steps

  1. 1

    Preparation

    Start by preparing the pork cutlets. If they are thick, use a meat mallet to pound them to about 1/2 inch thickness.

  2. 2

    Breading Station

    Set up a breading station with three shallow dishes. Place the flour in the first dish, beaten eggs in the second, and breadcrumbs mixed with salt, pepper, and garlic powder in the third.

  3. 3

    Coating the Cutlets

    Dredge each pork cutlet in flour, shaking off the excess. Dip it into the beaten eggs, letting any excess drip off, and finally coat it in the breadcrumb mixture, pressing lightly to adhere.

  4. 4

    Cooking

    In a large skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat. Once hot, add the breaded cutlets in batches, cooking for about 4-5 minutes on each side or until golden brown and cooked through.

  5. 5

    Serving

    Remove the cutlets from the skillet and drain on paper towels. Serve hot with lemon wedges on the side.
