Coat cutlets well with lemon pepper to taste. In a large nonstick skillet, heat butter to sizzling over medium-high heat. Cook cutlets quickly to brown both sides, turning once, about 7-8 minutes total. Place on buns; serve with lemon wedges.
Serves 4.
Wine Suggestion: Try a chilled rose or vin gris wine.
A sandwich version of the classic Piccata, these sandwiches borrow the lemon flavor profile that’s a satisfying foil to cutlets sautéed in butter. Accompany with Creamy Cabbage Slaw, cherry tomatoes and chips.
Cutlets also may come from the leg or from a tenderloin that has been sliced crosswise and flattened. Supermarkets may label thin slices of cutlet as scaloppini.
Traditional cutlets are great for quick meals and casual dining. They may be prepared to stand alone as a dinner entrée or may be used in sandwiches. Cutlets are best when quickly cooked, either by sautéing or grilling.
A cutlet is a thin, tender cut of pork that is often taken from the sirloin end of the loin after the tenderloin and bones have been removed.
