For a lower-fat option, bake the cutlets at 200°C (400°F) for 15-20 minutes, flipping halfway, until golden and crisp. You can also use an air fryer at 180°C (360°F) for 12-15 minutes.
Incorporate finely chopped vegetables like carrots, peas, or bell peppers into the mixture for added nutrition and texture. Sauté them along with the onions.
This recipe works well with other firm-fleshed fish like cod, mackerel, or even salmon. Adjust cooking time as needed.
