These simple cutlets were a favorite for my clients, nice to have on hand in the freezer when you come home famished. They are really a take on classic Italian veal cutlets, using turkey cutlets, which you can find in almost every market. I am using a vegetable spray to keep down the calories, but you can surely fry them up in a olive oil to increase the richness. The keys is to dredge the cutlets hot out of the pan in the grated Parmesan cheese and then I like to add a little grated lemon zest, adding that little bit of fresh. You can freeze them, if you can keep them around long enough, they are a great snack.
