Pork Cutlets Parmesan

Posted by Adina Steiman

Pork tenderloin is a healthy, affordable cut of meat (and it's often on sale at the big-box stores), but simply roasting it can get a little dull. That's why these savory breaded cutlets are such a nice surprise. They're made from slices of tenderloin pounded thin, and then breaded using egg white instead of whole eggs for a lighter touch. A dash of Parmesan adds great flavor, and frying them in olive oil keeps them heart-healthy. They're one of the most popular dinners on our site, and with only 254 calories per serving (and just 13.3 grams of fat), they're one of the healthiest, too.

Serve the crispy cutlets with steamed broccoli and baked potatoes, or top them with tomato sauce and mozzarella and broil them for an Italian-style treat.

These sound great. Thanks for the idea!

I have a recipe for chicken cutlets that I love and I serve them in a myriad of ways. . . . with a small salad on top, alongside noodles (red or gravy sauces), and I love having leftovers for sandwiches the next day.

Thank you for that recipe! I've been getting sick of chicken. I've never cooked/baked/steamed or deep fried a cutlet before and am so excited to try it out next week.

You're so right, Linderelli -- cutlets are fabulous in sandwiches the next day. Sometimes they even seem to taste better straight from the fridge!
