2. Put the panko, flour and egg in three separate bowls. Working with one cutlets at a time, add it to the flour and turn to coat it, letting any excess egg drip off.
3. Finally, transfer it to the panko breadcrumbs, turning to coat well and piling on some of the panko and pressing lightly with your hands. The goal is to get as much panko to adhere as you can.

6. Pour about 2 inches of vegetable oil into a medium pot and set it over medium high heat until the oil reaches 180ºC on the deep fry thermometer.
