Ingredients
  

  • 6 large eggs
  • 1 cup breadcrumbs
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 2 large eggs for egg wash
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • Vegetable oil for frying

Method
 

  1. Hard boil the 6 large eggs by placing them in a pot, covering with water, and bringing to a boil. Once boiling, cover the pot and remove from heat. Let sit for 12 minutes, then transfer to an ice bath to cool. Peel the eggs once cooled.
  2. In a shallow dish, combine the breadcrumbs, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. In another shallow dish, whisk together the 2 large eggs and milk to create an egg wash. Place the flour in a third shallow dish.
  3. Slice the peeled hard-boiled eggs in half lengthwise. Take each half, dip it in the flour, then the egg wash, and finally coat it with the breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently to adhere.
  4. In a large skillet, heat about 1/4 inch of vegetable oil over medium heat. Once hot, carefully add the coated egg halves, cut side down. Fry for about 3-4 minutes on each side or until golden brown and crispy.
  5. Remove the cutlets from the skillet and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil. Serve warm.
