  3. In a separate dish, whisk together eggs and water until smooth.
  4. In another dish, mix panko breadcrumbs with Parmesan cheese.
  5. Coat each cutlet in flour, shaking off excess.
  6. Dip the floured cutlet into the egg wash, allowing excess to drip off.
  7. Press the egg-coated cutlet into the breadcrumb mixture to coat thoroughly.
  8. Heat vegetable oil in a skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
  9. Fry the cutlets for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown.
