Milanese-Style Cutlets With Roasted-Pepper & Tomato Sauce is a classic Italian dish that is commonly found in Milan. The cutlets are breaded with breadcrumbs, fried until crispy, and served with a tangy roasted pepper and tomato sauce. This is a hearty main course that is perfect for a family meal or dinner party. The breadcrumb coating on the cutlets adds a comforting crunch to the dish, while the roasted pepper and tomato sauce complements the juicy meat perfectly. The dish is usually served with a side of potatoes or salad.

Instructions

2.In a large skillet, cook onion in 3 tablespoons of oil, for about 5 minutes or until tender.

4.Bring it to a boil, reduce to medium-low, and let it simmer for about 15 minutes or until the sauce thickens, stirring occasionally.
5.To make the cutlets, place the breadcrumbs in a shallow dish, whisk eggs in another shallow dish, and combine the Dijon mustard with the flour in a third shallow dish.
6.Coat each cutlet with flour mixture, egg, and breadcrumbs, in that order.
7.In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of oil over medium-high heat, and cook the cutlets for about 3 minutes per side or until golden brown.
8.Serve the cutlets hot with the roasted pepper and tomato sauce on top. Garnish with the remaining parsley.
