Good to Know
The catch is breading. A classic veal cutlet is often pounded thin and dredged in flour or breadcrumbs for schnitzel or parmigiana, and that coating can add 15 to 20 g of carbs per portion. Buy plain, uncoated cutlets from the butcher case and bread them yourself with crushed pork rinds or almond flour, or pan-fry them in butter and finish with lemon. Watch jarred marinara if you plan a parm style dish, since brands like Rao's stay low while many supermarket sauces sneak in added sugar.
