Steps

Read instructions and get ready to cook

1
Prepare the veal

If cutlets are thick, place between plastic wrap and pound to 1/4-inch thickness. Pat dry with paper towels. Season both sides with salt and pepper.

2
Set up breading station

Place flour on a plate. Beat eggs in a shallow bowl. Mix breadcrumbs with garlic powder, salt, and pepper on another plate.

3
Bread the veal

Dredge each cutlet in flour, shaking off excess. Dip in beaten eggs. Coat with seasoned breadcrumbs, pressing gently to adhere. Place on a clean plate.

4
Prepare the cheese

Slice mozzarella into 4 equal portions.

5
Cook the veal

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. When oil is hot, add cutlets (work in batches if necessary). Cook for 2-3 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through.

6
Add cheese

Place a slice of mozzarella on top of each cutlet. Cover the skillet with a lid for 1-2 minutes until cheese melts.

7
Prepare the lemon

Cut lemon into wedges.

8
Serve

Transfer cutlets to plates. Serve immediately with lemon wedges.
