Steps

Season the pounded cutlets with salt and pepper.
Set up three shallow dishes: flour, beaten eggs, and breadcrumbs.
Dredge each cutlet in flour, then egg, then press into breadcrumbs to coat evenly.
Heat the oil and butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Fry the cutlets 3-4 minutes per side until deep golden and cooked through, working in batches if needed.
Drain on paper towels and serve with lemon wedges.

Food safety Cook pork to 63°C / 145°F with a rest, or well-done if preferred.
