Polish Breaded Pork Cutlets Recipe – Kotlety Schabowy

Makes 4 servings
Prep Time: 15 minutes
Cook Time: 15 minutes
Total Time: 30 minutes

Ingredients:
•    4 boneless center-cut pork chops or 1-pound pork tenderloin
•    Salt and black pepper
•    All-purpose flour
•    1 large egg beaten with 1 teaspoon water
•    Bread crumbs or panko crumbs
•    Vegetable shortening or canola oil
Preparation:
1.    If using chops, trim off fat and gristle. If using tenderloin, trim off fat, remove silver skin and cut into 4 equal pieces. Pound pork between two pieces of plastic wrap to 1/4-inch thickness. Season both sides with salt and pepper.
2.    Dredge in flour, then egg, then bread or panko crumbs. Allow cutlets to dry for 10 minutes before frying.
3.    Heat shortening or oil to a depth of 1 inch in a large skillet. Fry one at a time by placing cutlets top side down into the pan. Fry 5 to 7 minutes per side until golden. Place on a heatproof plate in a warm oven (about 200 degrees) covered with foil and repeat with remaining cutlets. Alternatively, use two skillets to speed the process.
