Pork Schnitzel ~ Servings 4 


If you enjoy schnitzel as much as I do, preparing them for you and your family is worth the time invested.   To flatten the tenderloin pieces, pound on both sides with a meat hammer.  As pictured in the bowls below, first coat both sides of the schnitzel with flour, next with the whisked up egg & finally the breadcrumbs.  Add your favourite dried herbs to the crumbs for added flavour.
Serve your schnitzel with your favourite side-dish and a salad. Don't forget the fresh lemon wedges!


Ingredients
 
1 or 2 boneless pork tenderloin
1/4 cup flour
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp freshly ground black pepper
1 egg, beaten
2 Tablespoon milk
3/4 cup fine dry breadcrumbs or panko
1 tsp paprika
Oil-olive, grapeseed, or avocado
lemon wedges


Method

1. Use a meat hammer to pound the pork cutlets to 1/4 inch thickness.  
2. Set out 3 shallow bowls.  One with a mixture of the flour, salt and pepper.  The second with the egg and milk whisked together.  The third with a mixture of the breadcrumbs and paprika.
3. Heat the oil in a large skillet on medium heat.  Dredge the cutlets in the seasoned flour, then dip them in the egg mixture, and then into the mixture of bread crumbs or panko.  Add your favourite herb/spices to the crumbs.  e.g. garlic powder, onion powder, coriander powder, paprika.
4. Working in batches, sauté the cutlets for 3 or 4 minutes on each side.  Remove the cutlets from the skillet and place on an oiled baking pan. 
5. Bake at 350°F for 15-20 minutes or until fully cooked.​
6. Serve with lemon wedges.
