Directions:

1

Preheat oven to 200 degrees F

9

Keep the cooked cutlets hot in the warm oven

10

Wipe pan clean, add 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil heat then add roasted red peppers, season with salt and pepper and wilt them 4 to 5 minutes

While cutlets are in oven and peppers are cooking up, heat 1 tablespoon of butter in a medium skillet over medium heat

12

Add 4 eggs and fry to desired doneness, season with salt and pepper

13

Arrange some lettuce on each dinner plate, top with 1 cutlet, and some of the lemon juice over top
