• Heat the oil in a large skillet until the oil is shimmering. Gently lower the cutlets, one at a time, into the hot oil, and fry until golden brown on each side, about 8 minutes per cutlet. Drain the cutlets on paper towels.
• Preheat oven broiler, and set the oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source.
• Spread the Kaiser rolls open with the cut sides up, and broil until the rolls are toasted and hot, about 1 minute.
