cheese

🥗Healthier: nutritional yeast

Nutritional yeast is lower in fat and adds a cheesy flavor.

Pound the beef cutlets until thin and even.

Season the cutlets with salt, black pepper, and minced garlic.

Beat the eggs in a bowl and mix in chopped parsley.

Dip each cutlet into the egg mixture until fully coated.

Dredge the cutlets in breadcrumbs, pressing gently to adhere.

Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat until shimmering.

Fry the cutlets in batches until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes per side.

Remove the cutlets and drain on paper towels to absorb excess oil.

Serve hot with lemon wedges and a side of tomato sauce.

Garnish with lettuce and onion if desired.

Optionally, top with cheese and melt under a broiler for a few minutes.

Pair with fried or mashed potatoes for a complete meal.
