Instructions

  1. If using pork chops, pound them with a meat mallet until thin. If using chicken breasts, cut them in half horizontally then pound each cutlet. Season on both sides with salt and pepper.
  2. Dredge each cutlet in flour on both sides.
  3. Dip each cutlet in beaten eggs.
  4. Coat each cutlet in breadcrumbs.
  5. Heat clarified butter or frying oil in a pan over medium heat. Cook cutlets in batches until golden brown on both sides and cooked through in the middle.
  6. Enjoy!
  7. For more detailed instructions and step-by-step photos, visit the recipes for each type of Schnitzel that are shown in the body of the post (I have separate recipes for Wiener Veal Schnitzel, German Pork Schnitzel, and Breaded Chicken Cutlets, all of these are linked above).

Notes

  • The amounts of ingredients are estimated because you will use different amounts depending on how big your cutlets are.
