Ingredients:
| Quantity | Ingredient |
|---|---|
| 2 | Flour |
| 1/2 | Salt |
| 1/2 | Paprika |
| 1/8 | Pepper |
| 1 | Egg |
| 1 | Worcestershire sauce |
| 4 | Pork cutlets |
| 1/2 | Oil (for frying) |
Instructions:
-
Preparation:
- In a shallow pan, combine the flour, salt, paprika, and pepper. This mixture will be used to coat the pork cutlets.
- In another shallow pan, whisk together the egg and Worcestershire sauce. This will serve as the binding agent for the breading.
-
Coating the Pork Cutlets:
- First, coat each pork cutlet with the flour mixture, ensuring they are evenly coated on both sides.
- Next, dip the floured cutlets into the egg mixture, making sure they are fully coated.
- Finally, coat the cutlets with breadcrumbs, pressing gently to adhere the crumbs to the surface.
-
Cooking:
- Heat oil in a skillet over medium-high heat until hot but not smoking.
- Carefully place the breaded pork cutlets in the hot oil, working in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding the pan.
- Cook the cutlets for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and crispy.
- Once cooked, transfer the cutlets to a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil.
- Serve the breaded pork cutlets hot, garnished with fresh herbs or a squeeze of lemon juice if desired.
-
Optional:
- For added flavor, you can season the breadcrumbs with herbs or spices such as garlic powder, onion powder, or dried herbs like thyme or oregano.
- Serve the breaded pork cutlets with your favorite side dishes, such as mashed potatoes, steamed vegetables, or a crisp salad for a complete and satisfying meal.
