These crispy pork cutlets offer a sophisticated take on a classic schnitzel, featuring lean pork tenderloin coated in a savoury Parmesan and herb crust. The richness of the golden-fried pork is perfectly balanced by the sharp, salty punch of capers and thinly sliced lemon. Chilling the breaded meat before frying ensures the coating stay perfectly crisp, while the addition of chopped eggs provides a traditional garnish that adds wonderful texture to the plate.
This high-protein dish is an excellent choice for a nutritious midweek meal or an elegant weekend supper. The combination of peppery rocket and citrus creates a fresh, vibrant salad that complements the tender meat beautifully. For the best flavour, ensure you use fresh breadcrumbs and high-quality extra-virgin olive oil to finish the dish.

How to make Crispy Pork Cutlets with Capers, Lemon, Rocket, and Chopped Eggs
Torna ai contenutiSet 1 rack on each of 2 rimmed baking sheets. Using small sharp knife, cut all peel and white pith from lemon. Quarter lemon lengthwise, then thinly slice crosswise. Cover and chill lemon slices; discard peel. Mix sage, thyme, 1 teaspoon coarse salt, and 1 teaspoon ground pepper in small bowl.
Trim 2 inches from tapered ends of each tenderloin; reserve for another use. Cut tenderloins crosswise into 3/4-inchthick slices. Using mallet or flat side of meat tenderizer, pound slices between 2 sheets of plastic wrap to 1/4-inch thickness. Sprinkle sage mixture over both sides of pork cutlets. Place flour in shallow bowl and place eggs in another shallow bowl. Mix breadcrumbs and cheese in another shallow bowl. Working with 1 cutlet at a time, dredge in flour, shaking off excess, then dip in egg to coat. Place in breadcrumb mixture and coat both sides, pressing to adhere. Divide between prepared racks. Chill at least 30 minutes and up to 4 hours.
Preheat oven to 121°C. Add enough oil to heavy large skillet to measure depth of 1/4 inch. Heat over medium-high heat. Working in batches, cook pork until browned and cooked through, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer to another baking sheet; place in oven to keep warm.
Divide cutlets among 6 plates. Sprinkle capers and lemon slices over. Mix rocket with 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil and large pinch of coarse salt. Mound rocket mixture over pork and sprinkle with chopped eggs.
