Classic Chicken Schnitzel Recipe


  • Author: medAitRecp
  • Total Time: 25 minutes

Ingredients

• 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 2 large eggs, beaten
• 1 1/2 cups panko breadcrumbs
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 tablespoons olive oil or vegetable oil for frying


Instructions

• Step 1: Pound the chicken breasts to an even thickness of about 1/4 inch. This will help them cook evenly and ensure a crispy texture.
• Step 2: Set up a breading station with three shallow dishes: one with the flour, one with the beaten eggs, and one with the panko breadcrumbs mixed with the paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
• Step 3: Dredge the chicken breasts in the flour, dip them in the egg, and then coat them thoroughly with the seasoned breadcrumbs, pressing to help the crumbs adhere.
• Step 4: In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Fry the breaded chicken in batches for 3-4 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
• Step 5: Transfer the fried chicken schnitzel to a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil. Serve hot and enjoy!
