Step 1
Pound cutlets to 1/4-inch thickness. Season with salt and pepper.
Step 2
Set up three shallow dishes: flour, beaten eggs, and breadcrumbs.
Step 3
Dredge each cutlet in flour, dip in egg, then coat with breadcrumbs, pressing firmly.
Step 4
Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high. Fry cutlets until golden brown, about 3 minutes per side. Set aside.
Step 5
In the same skillet, add sliced apples and sauté until tender, about 4 minutes. Remove and keep warm.
Step 6
Add lingonberry jam and beef broth to the skillet. Stir and simmer until slightly thickened, about 2 minutes.
Step 7
Serve cutlets topped with sauce, alongside apples, and garnish with chopped chives.
Step 8
Optional: add a splash of cream or a pinch of paprika to the sauce for extra richness.
