Pour pork rinds into a food processor and process until they achieve a crumbly texture.
7
Prepare three shallow dishes: Fill one with almond flour, the second one with beaten eggs, and the third one with crushed pork rinds.

Fill a skillet with enough oil to cover about 1/2 inch and heat it up to 375°F. If you don't have a thermometer, wait until the oil starts to lightly smoke.

Transfer fried cutlets to a drying rack or a plate lined with paper towels to absorb excess oil.
