Schnitzel Ingredients

Method

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Meat

    Place the pork or chicken between two sheets of plastic wrap and pound to an even thickness of about 1/2 inch.

  2. 2

    Set Up the Breading Station

    In three separate shallow dishes, place the flour, beaten eggs, and a mixture of breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, oregano, thyme, salt, and pepper.

  3. 3

    Bread the Meat

    Coat each piece of meat in flour, shaking off the excess. Then dip into the beaten eggs, and finally coat with the breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently to adhere.

  4. 4

    Fry the Schnitzels

    In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the breaded schnitzels and fry until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes per side. Adjust the heat as necessary to prevent burning.

  5. 5

    Drain and Serve

    Remove the schnitzels from the skillet and drain on paper towels. Serve hot with lemon wedges and your choice of sides.
