Jaeger Schnitzel with Thyme and Parsley image

Although in traditional German fare (my heritage) this dish is made with veal cutlets, I found beautiful boneless pork center cut chops that translated beautifully. These should be 1/2 thick or less.

Tips:

To ensure the schnitzel is cooked evenly, use a meat mallet to pound it to an even thickness before frying.
When dredging the schnitzel, make sure to press the bread crumbs firmly into the meat so they adhere well.
Use a large skillet or frying pan to fry the schnitzel, so that it has plenty of room to cook without overcrowding.
Heat the oil to a medium-high temperature before adding the schnitzel, so that it sears quickly and doesn't absorb too much oil.
Cook the schnitzel for 3-4 minutes per side, or until it is golden brown and cooked through.
Serve the schnitzel immediately, topped with the thyme and parsley sauce.
