Schnitzel Sandwich Ingredients

Method

Preparation Directions

1

Prepare the Pork Cutlets

Pound the pork cutlets to about 1/2 inch thickness. Season with salt and black pepper.

2

Breading Station

Set up a breading station with three bowls: one with flour, one with beaten eggs, and one with breadcrumbs.

3

Bread the Cutlets

Coat each cutlet first in flour, then dip into the beaten eggs, and finally coat with breadcrumbs. Press the breadcrumbs onto the cutlet to ensure they stick.

4

Fry the Cutlets

In a large skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, carefully add the breaded cutlets and fry for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove and drain on paper towels.

5

Assemble the Sandwich

Slice the brötchen in half. Spread mayonnaise on both sides. Add a lettuce leaf, a fried cutlet, dill pickle slices, and a squeeze of lemon juice. Top with the other half of the roll.

6

Serve

Serve the schnitzel sandwich with a side of pommes.
