Schnitzel

Thin pork cutlets are tenderized, breaded and fried to a crispy golden brown. They’re quick and easy to make and jam-packed with flavor!

Ingredients :
  • 1 pound boneless pork chops or center cut pork chops
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper
  • ⅓ cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 tablespoons milk
  • ⅔ cup seasoned bread crumbs
  • ⅓ cup Panko bread crumbs
  • 1 cup vegetable oil for frying, see notes
  • kosher salt to taste
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
  • 3 tablespoons capers drained
  • 1 lemon cut into wedges
Directions :
  1. Preheat the oven to 200°F. Add a baking sheet to the oven to keep warm.
  2. If using pork loin, the pork into 4 even slices, approximately 4 oz each – ½ inch thick. Using the textured side of a meat mallet, gently pound the pork to ¼-inch thickness. Season with 1 teaspoon of salt and pepper.
  3. In a shallow bowl, whisk eggs and milk. In a second bowl, combine seasoned bread crumbs and Panko. Add the flour to a plate.
  4. Dip the pork in flour and shake off any excess. Dip into the egg mixture and then into the breadcrumb mixture, pressing to adhere. Place the breaded schnitzel on a baking sheet or large platter.
  5. In a large skillet, heat 1-inch of vegetable oil over medium high-heat to 375°F.
  6. Fry the schnitzel in small batches for about 1-2 minutes per side or until golden brown. Use tongs to transfer the schnitzel to a paper towel-lined plate and immediately sprinkle with kosher salt. Once salted, place the pork on a clean baking pan in the oven to keep warm while preparing the remaining schnitzel.
  7. Serve with parsley, lemon, and capers as garnishes.
