Step 1
Preheat oven to 425°F. Spread the 2 cups frozen french fries on a baking sheet and bake until golden and crisp, about 20 minutes, shaking halfway.
Step 2
While fries bake, set up three shallow dishes: 0.5 cup flour, 2 beaten eggs, and 1 cup breadcrumbs. Season each cutlet with salt and pepper.
Step 3
Dredge each cutlet in flour, then egg, then breadcrumbs, pressing crumbs to adhere. Heat 0.25 inch oil in a large skillet over medium-high.
Step 4
Fry cutlets until golden brown and cooked through, about 3 minutes per side. They should feel firm and look deeply golden.
Step 5
Serve cutlets with fries and a lemon wedge to squeeze over the top.
