Place each pork loin cutlet between two pieces of plastic wrap and pound with a meat mallet or rolling pin until about 1/4 inch thick.
In a shallow dish, mix the gluten-free flour, salt, and black pepper together.
In another shallow dish, beat the eggs and milk together until well combined.
In a third shallow dish, combine gluten-free breadcrumbs and paprika.
Dredge each pork cutlet in the flour mixture, shaking off any excess.
Dip the floured cutlet in the egg mixture, making sure it is completely coated.
Press the cutlet into the breadcrumb mixture, ensuring an even coat on both sides. Press gently so the breadcrumbs adhere.
Heat the vegetable oil and butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat until hot but not smoking.
Fry the breaded pork cutlets in the skillet for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and cooked through.
Remove the schnitzel from the skillet, and place it on a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil.
Serve immediately with lemon wedges on the side for squeezing over the schnitzel.
