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
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
Season cutlets with salt and pepper, dredge in rice flour, then egg, then almond flour, pressing to adhere.
- 3
Heat avocado oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
- 4
Fry the cutlets 2-3 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through.
- 5
Serve immediately with lemon wedges.
