1

Pound the beef cutlets to an even thickness using a meat mallet.

Season the beef with salt, black pepper, garlic, and paprika.

3

Set up a breading station with three shallow dishes: one for flour, one for beaten eggs, and one for bread crumbs.

4

Coat each beef cutlet in flour, shaking off excess.

5

Dip the floured cutlet into the beaten eggs, ensuring it's fully coated.

6

Press the egg-coated cutlet into the bread crumbs, covering it completely.

7

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

8

Add the breaded cutlets to the skillet in batches, being careful not to overcrowd.

9

Cook for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through.

10

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

11

Serve hot with lemon wedges and a sprinkle of fresh parsley.

12

Optionally, top with cheese and briefly broil until melted before serving.
