Step 1
Pound the 2 veal cutlets to 1/4 inch thickness. Season both sides with salt and pepper.
Step 2
Beat 1 egg in a shallow dish. Place 1/2 cup breadcrumbs on a plate. Dip each cutlet in the egg, then press into the breadcrumbs to coat evenly.
Step 3
Heat 2 tbsp olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high. Fry the breaded cutlets until golden and crispy, about 3 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate.
Step 4
In the same skillet, fry 1 egg sunny-side up until the white is set and the yolk is still runny, about 2 minutes.
Step 5
Top each cutlet with 1 slice prosciutto, a few tomato slices, and a handful of arugula. Place the fried egg on top and serve immediately.
