Notes

For a gluten free version, swap the flour and breadcrumbs for gluten free alternatives. For a dairy free version, use a nutritional yeast based parmesan substitute and skip the butter for frying. For a keto friendly version, replace the flour with almond flour and the breadcrumbs with extra parmesan and crushed nuts.
