Chicken Schnitzel Recipe
Report
Chicken schnitzel (Turkish - tavuk schnitzel) is a great main meal all year round but is especially tasty during the summer months served with a simple salad.
Share:
Ingredients
- 1 large chicken breast (skin removed)
- 2 egg
- 1 handful breadcrumbs
- ⅓ cup all-purpose flour or corn flour, plain
- 1 teaspoon oregano or thyme, dried
- ½ teaspoon chili flakes
- ¼ teaspoon Turmeric ground
- ¼ teaspoon cumin ground
- salt to season
- black pepper to season
Instructions
- Mix your breadcrumbs with dried herbs and spices.
- Now sprinkle them over a large plate.
- Beat your eggs and pour these onto another shallow plate. Place this next to your breadcrumb mixture.
- Now take your chicken breast and place it into a plastic bag.
- Use a rolling pin or something similar to beat it out, flatten and tenderise it.
- Now you have one large schnitzel (escalope). Cut this in half to make 2 schnitzels.
- Coat the chicken schnitzels in flour and shake off the excess.
- Gently heat a light covering of sunflower oil in a frying pan.
- Take your chicken schnitzels, one at a time, and coat them in the egg on both sides.
- Now place each fillet into your bread crumb mix, cover both sides and press down to make sure the crumbs stick.
- Turn the heat to high on your pan and place your chicken schnitzels side by side in the oil.
- Fry for 2 minutes on each side to make your breadcrumbs go crispy.
- Now turn the heat to medium and gently fry for a further 2-3 minutes on each side - or until your chicken is cooked.
- Serve immediately with a side salad or other accompaniments to suit the season.
Notes
- Your chicken can be substituted for pork or tenderised beef for this schnitzel recipe.
- We like flavoursome foods so we like to add herbs and spices to our breadcrumb mix for chicken schnitzel. This is optional so you can leave yours plain if you like.
- As with all of our recipes, the calorie count per serving is meant as a rough guide.
- The number of calories will depend on the size of your chicken breast, the type of breadcrumbs you use and your oil.
