Instructions

Tenderize each beef cutlet to about ¼" thickness using a meat tenderizer, then season with salt and pepper.
Set up three shallow dishes: one with flour, one with beaten eggs, and one with breadcrumbs, each seasoned with salt and pepper.
Dredge each cutlet in flour, dip in egg, and coat with breadcrumbs before placing on a plate.
Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F.
Fry each schnitzel for 2-3 minutes per side until golden brown. Transfer cooked schnitzels to paper towels to absorb excess oil.
