About This Product
Our Pork Cutlets are thin-sliced, boneless pork — quick-cooking and perfect for pan-frying or breading.
How to Cook It
- Pat dry; season or bread as desired.
- Sear in a hot, oiled pan 2–4 minutes per side (thin cutlets cook quickly), or pan-fry until golden if breaded.
- Finish in a 190°C/375°F oven if needed until the center reaches temperature.
- Rest a few minutes before serving.
Doneness & Internal Temperature
| Doneness | Internal Temp | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Medium | 63°C / 145°F | Slightly pink center, juicy |
| Medium Well | 66°C / 150°F | Trace of pink |
| Well Done | 71°C / 160°F | Cooked throughout |
Use a digital meat thermometer, and pull the meat a few degrees before your target — it will continue to rise while resting. Health Canada's minimum recommended internal temperature for whole cuts of pork is 63°C/145°F with a 3-minute rest. (Source: Health Canada safe cooking temperature guidelines.)
Chef's Tip
Since cutlets are thin, watch them closely — a minute or two of overcooking can dry them out fast.
