-
1 cup of flour
-
1 teaspoon of ground sage
-
7 large organic eggs

2 tablespoons of Dijon mustard
-
1 ½ cups of fine dry breadcrumbs

Directions

Step 1
Begin by preheating the oven to 200°. In a large skillet with a lid, melt 3 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Add the diced shallots and cook until softened, about 3 to 4 minutes, seasoning with salt and pepper. Add the green beans, coat with the shallots, then pour in the chicken stock. Cover and cook until the beans are tender, about 12 to 15 minutes.

Step 2
Season the beef and prepare the breading station: Place the flour and sage in a shallow dish, seasoning them. In another dish, beat 3 eggs and the Dijon mustard. In a third dish, season the breadcrumbs with salt, pepper, and nutmeg. Coat the beef in the flour mixture, then the egg mixture, and finally the breadcrumb mixture, pressing to ensure it sticks.

Step 3
In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of oil and 1 tablespoon of butter over medium-high heat. Cook 2 cutlets at a time until they are browned and crispy, about 4 minutes per side. Transfer the cooked cutlets to the oven to keep warm. Repeat with the remaining cutlets. In the same skillet, melt the remaining butter over medium-low heat. Crack the remaining eggs into the skillet and cook until the whites are set, approximately 3 minutes. Flip the eggs and cook until they are over easy, around 1 more minute.

Step 4
To serve, distribute the cutlets onto plates. Squeeze the lemon halves over the cutlets. Top each cutlet with capers, an over-easy egg, and crossed anchovy fillets to form an X. Serve the green beans alongside the cutlets.
