Instructions

With the pork loin slightly frozen or very cold, put it on a cutting board and begin removing silver skin and surplus fat.
Cut the pork loin into thin pieces. Lay them out on the board and season well with salt and pepper.
Beat the eggs in a bowl. Put the flour in a bowl and add salt and pepper, mix. Put the breadcrumbs in a bowl and organize the bowls in order of flour, egg, then breadcrumbs.
In a large heavy skillet, heat up the oil to a medium / high temperature. Make sure it does not start to smoke. Check with a cube of bread first, which should fry gradually to a golden brown.
Pick up a piece of pork. Dip it both sides in flour, then egg and onto breadcrumbs. Then lower it carefully into the skillet of hot oil. It should sizzle immediately.
Repeat this last step until all the pieces of pork have been breaded.
Cook the pork cutlets for about 3-5 minutes on each side. Meat should have an internal temperature of 150 -160 degrees F.
As one set of cutlets is cooked remove them from the pan and place the remaining pieces of pork into the skillet and fry until they are all cooked.
Place cutlets on absorbent paper, do not layer them.
Enjoy with parsley and lemon (Wiener schnitzel) or Mushroom Sauce (Jagerschnitzel).
