Main Event
- 1 lb (16 oz or 454g) Cutlets of Your Choice, sliced thin (ex: Tofu, Cauliflower-Lightly Steamed, Portobello Mushroom, Chicken, Fish, Pork or Beef Steak)
- Oil for Pan Frying (high heat) or Drizzle for Baking – we use Avocado Oil, which works for both
Instructions
Equipment: Digital Scale (preferred), Baking Sheet or Large Skillet, Mixing Bowls, Measuring Cups and Spoons, Whisk, Spatula or Tongs, Instant Read Digital Thermometer (optional), Paper Towels, Unbleached Parchment, Serving Dishes
Before You Dive In- Prep: Please Read!
- Heat on medium-high 1/4 inch of oil in a large skillet OR Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit (204 C)
- Slice cutlets (or whatever food you choose to coat) into desired thickness, shape and number of pieces. Rinse and pat dry
- Grate/shred cheese
- Lightly steam veggie slices such as cauliflower
- If baking, move oven rack to center
- If baking, preheat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit (190 C)
- If baking, place a sheet of unbleached parchment on a baking sheet
Step 1: In a medium bowl, whisk together all dry ingredients. Transfer the blend to a shallow dish such as a pie dish.
Step 2: In a separate bowl, beat the eggs.
Step 3: Cutlets should be rinsed and pat dry. Dip each piece in the egg and then dredge through the flour mixture. Set aside on a plate.
Step 4: IF PAN FRYING, follow steps 4-6. The oil should be at least 350 degrees F. To check the temperature without a thermometer, toss a piece of coating in the oil. If the piece starts to sizzle and turn a golden color – you are good to go.
Step 5: Gently place cutlets in the hot oil. You may need to work in batches depending on the size of your skillet and the number of pieces. Cook for about 2-6 minutes depending on your type/thickness of cutlet and turn. Cutlets are ready to turn when the bottom is turning a deep golden brown, and you can see the color of the cutlet beginning to change from the lower half. Do not burn.
Step 6: Use tongs to turn cutlets when ready. Cook the other side until a deep golden brown. Remove from oil and transfer to a plate lined with a paper towel. Serve right away.
Step 7: If BAKING, follow steps 7-9. Drizzle oil onto the parchment. Place cutlet pieces on the parchment and then drizzle with oil. Alternatively, you can spray them with oil if you have an oil mister.
Step 8: Bake for about 10-15 minutes and then turn cutlets and bake the other side. The length of time depends on the type/thickness of your cutlet, so be watchful. Bake on the the other side for about 10-15 minutes. Your cutlet is done when it reaches a golden color and feels done to the touch.
Step 9: Remove from the oven and transfer to a serving dish. Eat while hot out of the oven.
Enjoy!
