It's easy to prepare and sure to become a family favorite. Follow these simple steps to create your own delicious chicken schnitzel at home.
- Pound the chicken breasts to an even thickness to ensure they cook evenly.
- Let the breaded chicken rest for a few minutes before frying to help the coating adhere better.
- Use a meat thermometer to ensure the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165°F (74°C) for safe consumption.
- For an extra crispy coating, use panko bread crumbs instead of regular bread crumbs.
- Serve with a squeeze of fresh lemon juice for an added burst of flavor.
- If you prefer, you can bake the schnitzel in the oven at 400°F (200°C) for 20-25 minutes instead of frying.
