Delicious Pork Schnitzel

 


 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

A simple pork chop cutlet with a crispy, crunchy coating makes Pork Schnitzel an irresistibly easy meal.  Let me start off by saying Schnitzel is so easy to make and so good.  You will want to make it often.  Talk about easy?   Simply pound, season, dip, pan fry.  It’s just that simple!  That crispy coating makes all the difference. It takes the flavor from simple to simple-yet-sublime. Perhaps more importantly, it adds crispy, crunchy texture. Yum!

 

 Delicious Pork Schnitzel

 2 lbs boneless pork chops
1/3 cup all-purpose flour
1 Tablespoon garlic salt

1/2 tsp paprika
1/2 tsp black pepper

3 large eggs
2 cups panko bread crumbs
Olive oil, canola oil or any high heat cooking oil
Lemon wedges to serve

 

Line a cutting board with plastic wrap, place cutlets in a single layer on cutting board and cover with plastic wrap (this prevents splatter). Pound cutlets with a meat mallet or the back of a heavy saucepan, until 1/4" to 1/8" thick.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Set up three bowls. In the first combine 1/3 cup flour, 1 tablespoon garlic salt, 1/2 teaspoon paprika and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. In the second, use a fork to beat 3 eggs. In the third bowl, add 2 cups panko crumbs.

 



 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 


 

Dredge both sides of each pounded cutlet in flour then dip in beaten egg letting excess egg drip back into the bowl before breading in panko crumbs. It helps to use a fork for the dipping process to keep your hands clean. Repeat with remaining cutlets.

 


 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Once all cutlets are breaded, heat a large non-stick pan over medium heat and add enough oil to cover the bottom of the pan. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 


 

Once oil is hot, add breaded cutlets a few at a time and sauté 3-4 min per side or until cooked through. Reduce heat if browning too quickly.  

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

  

 



Remove to plate.  Serve with lemon wedges.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Serve with mashed potatoes and maybe a salad. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 


So crispy on the outside and moist on the inside!  Perfect.
