Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Veal cutlets
- 1 cup Almond flour
- 0.5 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Dried Italian herbs
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 pieces Large eggs
- 0.25 cup Olive oil
Instructions
Place each veal cutlet between two pieces of plastic wrap and pound with a meat mallet until about 1/4 inch thick.
In a shallow dish, combine almond flour, grated Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, dried Italian herbs, salt, and black pepper.
In another shallow dish, beat the eggs until smooth.
Dip each veal cutlet into the beaten eggs, allowing excess to drip off, then coat thoroughly in the almond flour mixture.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Add veal cutlets to the skillet, cooking in batches if necessary, and cook for 4-5 minutes on each side until golden brown and the internal temperature reaches 145°F.
Remove from heat and place on a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil.
Serve hot with your choice of side dish, such as steamed vegetables or a fresh salad.
