Pork schnitzel is a classic German dish that is made by pounding pork cutlets thin and then breading and frying them. It is typically served with a mushroom gravy and is a popular choice for a hearty and comforting meal. This article provides two recipes for pork schnitzel: a traditional recipe and a healthier version that uses panko breadcrumbs and less butter. Both recipes are easy to follow and result in a delicious and flavorful dish.

The traditional pork schnitzel recipe uses pork loin cutlets, which are pounded thin and then dredged in flour, eggs, and breadcrumbs. The cutlets are then fried in butter until they are golden brown and crispy. The mushroom gravy is made with fresh mushrooms, onions, and cream. The gravy is poured over the schnitzel and served with mashed potatoes or spaetzle.

The healthier version of pork schnitzel uses panko breadcrumbs and less butter. The cutlets are also baked instead of fried, which reduces the amount of fat in the dish. The mushroom gravy is made with low-fat milk and is also lower in calories than the traditional gravy. This version of pork schnitzel is a great option for those who are looking for a healthier way to enjoy this classic dish.

1 1/2 pounds pork loin, cut into 6-ounce portions
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon salt
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 teaspoon granulated garlic
1 teaspoon paprika
1 egg
1/2 cup milk
2 teaspoons mustard
1 cup crushed unsalted crackers

1 lb boneless pork or 1 lb veal cutlet
2 eggs (beaten)
1/2 cup breadcrumbs
1/4 cup flour
3 tablespoons oil
4 slices bacon (diced)
2/3 cup onion (chopped)

2 tablespoons sour cream

Steps:

Pork Schnitzel w/Mushroom Gravy image

If you love the other "white" meat you'll love this simple recipe. However, when I made it a few weeks ago I was just creating and didn't pay attention to my amounts nor did I right them down. So these are estimates on amounts. I will make it again and then edit the recipe for you. I wanted to post it because I didn't want to...

4 - 6 medium pork cutlets, or can use pork loin pounded into thin cutlets
2 - 3 Tbsp oil

onion powder
garlic salt
1/2 - 3/4 c wine/or chicken broth
flour, use if needed for making your gravy thicker. i didn't use any.

Steps:

  • 1. Now if you purchase pork loin you'll have to use the mallet and thin out. Season your cutlets with salt and pepper. Next, dip in flour, combine your eggs and milk; whisk well. Dip your cutlet into that mixture and then last in the combined cornflakes, breadcrumbs and paprika.
  • 2. Add your oil to frying pan and fry your breaded pork cutlets for about 3-4 minutes on each side.
  • 3. Meanwhile, you can sauté your shrooms & onions in some butter, then add white wine or chicken broth. I didn't measure my onion powder or garlic salt so use to your discretion.
  • 4. I had leftover Spaetzel so I fried it up with some butter, garlic salt and pepper. You can serve this over any noodle you want, rice or even mashed potatoes.

Yield 4 people

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/3 cup (75 mL) all purpose flour
1/4 tsp (1 mL) each salt and pepper
1 lb (454 g) pork, cutlets or scaloppine
2 tbsp (30 mL) butter
3 cups (750 mL) sliced mushrooms
2 cloves garlic, minced
1-1/3 cups (325 mL) chicken stock
1/3 cup (75 mL) light sour cream
1 tbsp (15 mL) soy sauce2 tbsp (30 mL) minced fresh parsley for garnish

Steps:

  • In shallow dish, combine flour, salt and pepper; press pork into flour mixture and turn to coat. Reserve remaining flour mixture. In skillet, melt butter over meduim-high heat; fry pork, in batches and turning once, until just a hint of pink remains inside, about 6 minutes (or until no longer pink for chicken and turkey). Transfer to plate; keep warm. In the same skillet, fry mushrooms and garlic until no liquid remains, about 5 minutes. Add reserved flour mixture; cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Stir in stock and bring to boil; reduce heat and simmer, stirring, until thickened, about 3 minutes. Stir in sour cream and soy cause; pour over pork. Sprinkle with parsley.

Tips:

  • For the perfect schnitzel, use thin-cut pork loin chops. If you can't find them pre-sliced, you can slice them yourself using a sharp knife.
  • To tenderize the pork chops, pound them with a meat mallet or rolling pin until they are about 1/4-inch thick.
  • To prevent the schnitzel from sticking to the pan, make sure the oil is hot before adding the meat.
  • Cook the schnitzel over medium-high heat for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
  • To make the mushroom gravy, use a variety of mushrooms, such as cremini, shiitake, and oyster mushrooms.
  • Sauté the mushrooms in butter until they are browned and tender.
  • Add flour to the pan and cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly.
  • Gradually whisk in milk until the gravy reaches the desired consistency.
  • Season the gravy with salt, pepper, and herbs, such as thyme or rosemary.
  • Serve the schnitzel with the mushroom gravy, mashed potatoes, and a side of vegetables.

Conclusion:

Pork schnitzel with mushroom gravy is a classic German dish that is easy to make and always a crowd-pleaser. The schnitzel is crispy and juicy, while the gravy is rich and flavorful. This dish is perfect for a special occasion or a weeknight meal.
