Healthy Schnitzel Recipe
Schnitzel is a breaded and fried meat cutlet, popular in Austrian and German cuisines. While the original Wiener Schnitzel uses veal, variations like pork, chicken, or turkey schnitzels are common.
Ingredients
Meat: Veal (traditional), or pork/chicken cutlets.
Breadcrumbs: Fine, dry breadcrumbs for coating.
Flour: For dredging.
Eggs: Beaten, to help the coating adhere.
Salt and Pepper: To season the meat.
Butter or Oil: For frying.
Basic Steps
1. Prepare the Meat: Pound the meat slices thin (about ¼ inch) and season with salt and pepper.
2. Dredge and Coat: Dip the cutlets in flour, then beaten eggs, and finally breadcrumbs, pressing lightly to coat evenly.
3. Fry the Schnitzel: Heat butter or oil in a skillet and fry the cutlets until golden brown on each side. Avoid overcrowding the pan.
4. Serve: Serve with lemon wedges, potato salad, or spaetzle for a traditional touch.
