Ingredients
- 1 pound boneless pork chops or center cut pork chops
- 1 teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- ⅓ cup all-purpose flour
- 2 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons milk
- ⅔ cup seasoned bread crumbs
- ⅓ cup Panko bread crumbs
- 1 cup vegetable oil for frying, see notes
- kosher salt to taste
For Serving
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
- 3 tablespoons capers drained
- 1 lemon cut into wedges
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 200°F. Add a baking sheet to the oven to keep warm.
- If using pork loin, the pork into 4 even slices, approximately 4 oz each - ½ inch thick. Using the textured side of a meat mallet, gently pound the pork to ¼-inch thickness. Season with 1 teaspoon of salt and pepper.
- In a shallow bowl, whisk eggs and milk. In a second bowl, combine seasoned bread crumbs and Panko. Add the flour to a plate.
- Dip the pork in flour and shake off any excess. Dip into the egg mixture and then into the breadcrumb mixture, pressing to adhere. Place the breaded schnitzel on a baking sheet or large platter.
- In a large skillet, heat 1-inch of vegetable oil over medium high-heat to 375°F.
- Fry the schnitzel in small batches for about 1-2 minutes per side or until golden brown. Use tongs to transfer the schnitzel to a paper towel-lined plate and immediately sprinkle with kosher salt. Once salted, place the pork on a clean baking pan in the oven to keep warm while preparing the remaining schnitzel.
- Serve with parsley, lemon, and capers as garnishes.
Notes
- To use pork tenderloin: You can use pork tenderloin in this recipe in place of pork loin. Cut 1 lb pork tenderloin into 4 even pieces, turn it upright so it is resting on the cut side, and pound to ¼-inch thickness.
- Oil: Peanut oil can be used in place of vegetable oil. Use enough oil so it is 1-inch deep in the skillet - you may need more or less depending on the size of your pan.
- To gauge the temperature of the oil, a fresh bread cube should be bubbly and brown once added to the oil.
