Serve: Serve cutlets topped with sauce. (2 minutes)
For an extra layer of flavor, try adding a touch of smoked paprika to the panko bread crumbs.
If you don't have a meat mallet, you can use a rolling pin or the bottom of a heavy pan to flatten the pork.
The cream gravy can be made ahead of time and reheated gently before serving.
Adjust the amount of jalapeño pepper to suit your spice preference. For a milder flavor, remove the seeds and membranes completely.
Ensure the oil is hot before adding the cutlets to achieve a perfectly crispy crust. Avoid overcrowding the pan to maintain the oil temperature.
