Preparation method
- Season the beef cutlets with salt, pepper, and minced garlic
- Let the meat rest for a few minutes to absorb the seasonings
- In a shallow dish, whisk the eggs until well beaten and homogeneous
- Prepare two separate plates, one with all-purpose flour and the other with breadcrumbs
- Lightly dredge each beef cutlet in the all-purpose flour
- Dip the floured cutlet into the beaten eggs, ensuring it's fully coated
- Press the egg-coated cutlet into the breadcrumbs, covering the entire surface
- Heat a generous amount of vegetable oil in a skillet over medium-high heat
- Fry the breaded cutlets until they are deeply golden brown on both sides
- Remove the fried cutlets from the skillet and place them on paper towels to absorb excess oil
Observations
Use tender cuts of beef to ensure the inside remains juicy while the outside reaches the perfect golden-brown. It's an excellent choice for anyone looking for a practical and flavorful meal.
