cutlets
Thin meat slices
Cutlets are thin, boneless pieces of meat, typically from the leg or rib section of veal, pork, lamb, or chicken.
The meat is often pounded flat for quick cooking—breaded and fried, or sautéed: chicken cutlets, veal cutlets.
The term also applies to similar preparations made from ground meat or vegetables shaped into flat patties: vegetable cutlets.
