These cutlets are not only nutritious but also versatile—they can be served with salad, light sides, or enjoyed on their own. The golden crispy crust formed when frying in olive oil adds to their appeal. This combination of flavors makes the dish an ideal choice for those who appreciate healthy and sophisticated cuisine.
