  9. Add the rolls to the sauce, garnish with the remaining parsley and serve.

Tips and Tricks

Pounding the cutlets with a meat tenderizer not only serves to flatten the cutlet and break up the fibers, but it also ensures that all the slices are of the same thickness and cook at the same time, thus avoiding overcooking.
