Pork cutlets - dredged in flour with spices of choice, egg wash, panko and fried in butter. I don't serve fried and fried often, so baked potato, and the last of the Christmas asparagus. I need to get the cutlets thinner next time, but the meal made the list. Cream gravy in the pan, some of the spiced flour, a little more butter and milk to desired thickness. Tasty!

Where I'm from in Indiana, we pound the crap out of them until big and thin, then coat in egg wash and dip in seasoned bread crumbs and fry. Then serve it on a bun with toppings, or serve with the gravy and mashed or rice. Germans call it Schnitzel........but we Hoosiers just call it a Breaded Pork Tenderloin. But they are so good. After seeing yours, I might have to make those.

Thick or thin a very delicious meal . If you lave them thick try putting panko in a food processor until very fine coat meat as usual fry lightly till light golden then finish in the oven 375 5-7 minutes. Good for chicken as well . Chef Jean Pierre utube excellent finish imo

That looks great! I just used minute steak to make something like that. We call it chicken fried steak. Served with mashed potatoes and homemade biscuits.

When I make those with pork, I start with a pork tenderloin and slice it thick, then turn it on the end and pound it out thin. My egg wash has buttermilk in it and then I use a combination of crackers and Panko. Serve it on a bun. It is called an Iowa Skinny! (Or a pork tenderloin sandwich.)

Had a lot of German food growing up, but my Grandmother never heard of Panko. Breaded pork chops, Schnitzel, etc. this came out better than the Tonkatsu I made a couple of months ago. The pan gravy was a nice addition. Thanks for commenting!

Thanks! I had chicken fried steak a while back, and will need to try to make it at home. I used paprika, Lowery's and salt in the flour for dredging and for the gravy. Gave the gravy a pinkish tone, but it was tastier than traditional / Texas style. I pounded this at some length, it just didn't want to. Would have been better thinner, but was tasty enough.

Once again you've produced a dish I'm going to have to try to make. When I make a gravy for my chicken fried steak I add bacon grease and the seasoned flour.

It looks delicious quixdraw. Had to goggle what panko was and found it in our local grocery store, on the shopping list!

Thank you! Panko is useful on nearly anything fried - these cutlets, shrimp, chicken - just a nice extra crunch.
