Step 1
Pat beef dry. Place between plastic wrap, pound to 1/4-inch thickness using a mallet or rolling pin.
Step 2
Set up three shallow bowls: flour in one, beaten egg in another, panko mixed with parmesan in the third.
Step 3
Dredge each cutlet in flour, tap off excess, dip in egg, then coat fully in panko-parmesan mixture.
Step 4
Heat olive oil and butter in a 12-inch skillet over medium-high until the foam subsides, ~90 seconds.
Step 5
Sear cutlets 2 minutes per side without moving until golden brown and crispy. Transfer to a plate.
Step 6
Squeeze fresh lemon over the top. Serve immediately with arugula on the side if desired.
