Crunchy, tart & a little briny; these fried pork cutlets are a whole vibe that anyone can recreate! Y'all know by now that I enjoy simple meals & this one might have taken me 20 minutes to make! 

Ingredients: 

• 1 lb Triple C Pork Cutlets 
• Capers 
• Lemon juice 
• Lemon Zest - I zested the whole lemon
• Shawarma seasoning or any seasoning you enjoy really! 
• A little salt & pepper 
• Olive Oil for frying ( about 1.2 inches in your pan)
• 2 eggs 
• 1-2 c. flour 
• Arugula 
• B'der Jays microgreens 
• Belle Mille olive oil for finishing

Preparation: 

• Mix flour, shawarma, half of the lemon zest, salt & pepper together in a bowl 
• Crack eggs into a separate bowl & whisk 
• Dry & trim pork cutlets to your liking. 
• Pour about 1-1.5" olive oil in your pan of choice & turn burner on medium to high heat! ( a good way to know the oil is ready for frying is to sprinkle some flower in it and if it bubbles up it's ready!)
• Dip cutlets one by one into egg mixture, shaking any excess off. 
• Then dip into the flower mixture and again, shake any excess off. 
• Drop into the oil & fry for about 4 minutes on each side. 
• You can fill your pan with 1 layer of cutlets at a time. 
• If you need to add more oil for frying make sure it heats up before adding cutlets. 
• Lay a bed of arugula on your plate, layer fried cutlets topped with capers & B'der Jays micro-greens. 
• Finish with a little lemon juice & lemon zest & don't forget to drizzle Belle Mille olive oil over it! 

I hope this puts a smile on your face while you hear the crunch of each bite & feel the citrus bounce off your taste buds. Simple, yet elegant. 

Made with love,
