Ingredients

  • 4 boneless pork chops pounded out to 1/2-1/4 inch thick
  • 1/4 cup flour
  • salt & pepper to taste
  • 1 egg beaten
  • 2 tbsp milk
  • 3/4 cup seasoned fine bread crumbs
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • 3 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • 3/4 cup chicken broth

Instructions

  • Using a small paring knife, cut a couple tiny slits around the edges of the cutlets to prevent them from curling when cooked.
  • Prep three bowls/plates, whichever works for you- the first with a mixture of flour tossed with salt & pepper. The second with the egg & milk beaten together. And finally the third, with the breading & paprika mixed together.
  • In a large skillet over medium high heat, let the oil heat up.
  • While the oil's heating, dip the prepared cutlets in the flour. Shake off excess, and then dip in the egg mixture, followed by the breading to coat. You're going to have to work in batches.
  • Working in batches, saute the cutlets in hot oil for 3-4 minutes per side. Remove the cooked cutlets to a waiting plate and tent with foil. Cook the rest of the cutlets.
  • When the cutlets are cooked through you can serve them as is, or with a gravy.
