Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Turkey cutlets
- 0.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
- 2 pieces Large eggs
- 2 tablespoons Water
- 1 cups Panko breadcrumbs
- 0.75 cups Grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon Dried Italian seasoning
- 0.5 teaspoons Garlic powder
- 4 tablespoons Vegetable oil
- 4 pieces Lemon wedges
Instructions
Place the turkey cutlets on a clean surface and pat them dry with paper towels.
Set up a breading station with three shallow bowls: one with the flour mixed with salt and pepper, one with whisked eggs and water, and one with panko breadcrumbs, grated Parmesan cheese, Italian seasoning, and garlic powder.
Dip each turkey cutlet first into the flour, coating both sides and shaking off the excess. Then, dip into the egg mixture, allowing the excess to drip off, and finally coat with the breadcrumb mixture. Press gently to ensure the breadcrumbs adhere well.
Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Working in batches if necessary, place the breaded turkey cutlets into the skillet. Cook for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until the crust is golden brown and the turkey is cooked through to an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
Transfer the cooked cutlets to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.
Serve the Parmesan Crusted Turkey Cutlets hot with lemon wedges on the side for a burst of freshness.
