Zigeunerschnitzel (Gypsy Schnitzel) image

This is a pork schnitzel with a spicy tomato sauce with mushrooms. I have tried this using chicken as well and I really can't decide which I like better. We really enjoy these. Something my Grandmother used to make for us when we went to visit.

I thought this recipe was just okay. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything special either.

The sauce was a bit too spicy for me, but the schnitzel itself was delicious.

I had some trouble getting the schnitzel to brown evenly. I'm not sure what I did wrong.

This schnitzel was a bit too dry for my taste. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.
