How To Make schnitzel - thin breaded german pork chops
-
Step 1Prepare the meat by trimming off the fat. Flatten or pound it, without tearing, to a uniform 1/4 inch thickness. Season with a mixture of salt, pepper and paprika.
-
Step 2For the next steps, you should handle the meat with a fork or you will have a mess on your fingers. Dredge the meat in flour until well coated. Lightly beat the eggs in a bowl. Dip the chops into the eggs and cover them with breadcrumbs.
-
Step 3Leave the breaded meat rest on a cookie sheet or on a wire rack for a while (15 minutes) to give the breading a chance to adhere better.
-
Step 4Preheat your oven to 225 degrees.
-
Step 5Heat the fat in a large skillet. Cook the Schnitzel on both sides until they are nicely browned. When all of them are finished put them into the pre-heated oven for about 1/2 hour. NOTE: This last important step allows the seasonings to be absorbed by the meat.
