Schnitzel

Last night my hubby made Schnitzel for dinner. Schnitzel is pork that is flattened, breaded and fried. My husband picked up this family favorite when he was living in Germany while serving in the Air Force. We don't eat it very often but when we do it is such a treat! We usually serve honey mustard on the side for dipping. Yummy!

Schnitzel

boneless pork

Lemon Juice

Salt and Pepper

4-C Italian Bread Crumbs

Oil

Flatten the pork with a meat mallet. You want the pork to be kind of thin. Put the pork in some lemon juice for a few minutes. Heat up some oil in a frying pan. Remove the pork from the juice and then season both sides with Salt and Pepper. Dip both sides of the pork into the bread crumbs. Fry both sides of the pork until golden in the oil.

The above is how my family normally cooks Schnitzel. Last night we followed this Schnitzel recipe but made ours with seasoned bread crumbs instead of Panko. They came out fantastic, but we did miss the lemon flavor. So next time we will also soak them in lemon juice too.
