PAN-FRIED CHICKEN SCHNITZEL-STYLE



Pan-Fried Chicken Schnitzel-Style image

This is an adaption of the usual veal Schnitzel that makes it more affordable in my house. I think that it's just as good and it doesn't take all that long either. By all means use fresh herbs if you have them but I have to use dried because I can't grow them.

HäHNCHEN SCHNITZEL (GERMAN PAN FRIED BREADED CHICKEN CUTLETS) RECIPE - (4.3/5)



Hähnchen schnitzel (German pan fried breaded chicken cutlets) Recipe - (4.3/5) image

Provided by á-39535

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 large eggs
1 clove garlic, minced
1/2 teaspoon minced fresh parsley
coarse salt
ground pepper
1 cup fresh breadcrumb (made from 3 slices white bread or purchased bread crumbs
1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
4 (6 ounce) chicken cutlets, pounded to an even 1/4 inch thickness
4 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon butter
1/4 cup dry white wine
1/2 cup chicken broth
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice

Steps:

  • Beat eggs in a shallow bowl with garlic, parsley, salt and pepper. In a separate shallow bowl, combine breadcrumbs (I pulse the bread slices in the food processor to get nice fresh crumbs) and parmesan cheese. Place chicken cutlets between two sheets of waxed paper and beat as thinly as possible with a meat mallet. Dip each cutlet into egg mixture to coat completely, then dredge in breadcrumb mixture, patting it on to help it stick. For each 2 cutlets, heat 2 tbsp oil in a large non-stick skillet over med-high heat. Cook 2 cutlets at a time until golden brown and cooked through, about 3 minutes per side. Transfer the cooked chicken cutlets to an oven-proof platter or pan, and keep warm in the oven while cooking the remaining cutlets and making the sauce. Wipe the skillet clean with paper towels. Heat butter until melted and add wine. Heat 30 seconds and stir in broth and lemon juice. Season with salt and pepper. Simmer 2 minutes. Pour broth mixture over cutlets and serve. Garnish with parsley and lemon slices.

Categories     Lunch

Time 26m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 lb boneless skinless chicken breast
1 teaspoon kosher salt, plus more to taste
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, plus more to taste
1 cup all purpose flour
2 large eggs
1 ½ cups panko breadcrumbs
¼ cup vegetable oil
lemon wedge, for serving
¼ cup fresh parsley

Steps:

  • On a cutting board, slice the chicken breasts in half horizontally, creating 2 thin pieces. Place the chicken breasts, 1 at a time, in a large zip-top bag. Use a meat mallet to pound the chicken to ¼-inch-thick. Transfer the chicken to a cutting board and blot dry with a paper towel. Season the chicken on both sides with salt and pepper.
  • In a shallow bowl, whisk together the flour, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1 teaspoon pepper. In another shallow bowl, beat the eggs. Add the panko to a third shallow bowl.
  • Coat the chicken in the flour, shaking off any excess. Then, dip in the eggs, letting any excess drip off. Finally, coat in the panko, making sure all sides are covered. Transfer the chicken to a clean cutting board.
  • Heat the vegetable oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Once the oil begins to shimmer, add the chicken and cook until golden brown, 2-3 minutes per side. Transfer the chicken to a paper towel-lined plate and season with salt. Serve the chicken schnitzel with lemon wedges and garnish with parsley.
  • Enjoy!

Tips:

  • Use high-quality chicken breasts: Look for chicken breasts that are plump and free of any blemishes. The meat should be a light pink color with no signs of bruising or discoloration.
  • Pound the chicken breasts to an even thickness: This will help them cook evenly. Use a meat mallet or rolling pin to pound the chicken breasts to a thickness of about 1/4 inch.
  • Season the chicken breasts liberally: Use a combination of salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika to season the chicken breasts. You can also add other spices, such as cumin, oregano, or thyme.
  • Use a light coating of flour: Dredge the chicken breasts in flour before frying them. This will help the coating to adhere to the chicken and prevent it from becoming soggy.
  • Fry the chicken breasts in a hot skillet: Use a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add enough oil to cover the bottom of the skillet. Fry the chicken breasts for 3-4 minutes per side, or until they are golden brown and cooked through.

Conclusion:

Pan-fried chicken schnitzel is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The chicken is juicy and flavorful, and the coating is crispy and golden brown. Serve with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a simple salad.
