Preparation

  1. 1

    Place pork chops between sheets of plastic wrap and pound with a meat mallet to an even 5 mm thickness.

  2. 2

    Season both sides of each cutlet generously with salt and black pepper.

  3. 3

    Set up three shallow dishes: one with flour, one with beaten eggs, and one with panko breadcrumbs.

  4. 4

    Dredge each pork cutlet first in flour, shaking off the excess, dip into beaten egg, and press firmly into breadcrumbs to coat completely.

  5. 5

    Heat canola oil in a large heavy skillet over medium-high heat until hot.

  6. 6

    Fry cutlets in batches for 3 to 4 minutes per side until deeply golden and cooked through.

  7. 7

    Transfer to a paper-towel-lined plate to drain and serve immediately with fresh lemon wedges.

Panko breadcrumbs offer superior crispness, regular breadcrumbs work too.
