Ingredients

  • 4 boneless pork cutlets
  • 1/2 cup rice flour
  • 2 eggs, beaten
  • 1.5 cups almond flour
  • 1/2 cup avocado oil for frying
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • lemon wedges for serving

Method

  1. 1

    Pound the pork cutlets between two sheets of parchment paper to an even quarter-inch thickness — this even thinness is what lets the schnitzel cook through in just a couple of minutes, fast enough that the coating doesn't burn before the inside is done.

  2. 2

    Season cutlets with salt and pepper, dredge in rice flour, then egg, then almond flour, pressing to adhere.

  3. 3

    Heat avocado oil in a large skillet over medium heat.

  4. 4

    Fry the cutlets 2-3 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through.

  5. 5

    Serve immediately with lemon wedges.
