RAHMSCHNITZEL (GERMAN SCHNITZEL IN CREAMY MUSHROOM SAUCE)



Rahmschnitzel (German Schnitzel in Creamy Mushroom Sauce) image

I lived in Germany for 7 years and fell in love with Rahmschnitzel. Every recipe I found says to use dry white wine in the sauce. Every time I made it, something was missing. It wasn't that "Yep, I'm in Germany" taste. Then my beautiful wife had a Riesling one night and I used it. Now we're back in Germany!

Time 1h5m

Yield 3

Number Of Ingredients 12

3 (5 ounce) boneless veal escalopes, pounded to 1/4 thickness or thinner
1 medium lemon, juiced, or more to taste
½ cup all-purpose flour
1 ¼ teaspoons salt, divided
1 ¼ teaspoons ground black pepper, divided
1 teaspoon ground paprika
¼ cup butter
½ cup dry Riesling
1 (8 ounce) package sliced fresh mushrooms
2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives

  • Remove veal from lemon juice and pat dry.
  • Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F (95 degrees C).
  • Combine flour, 1 teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon pepper, and paprika in a bowl. Place veal in the mixture and turn to coat evenly.

Categories     main-dish

Time 35m

Yield 4 serving

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 bone-in chicken breasts
3/4 cup flour
2 large eggs beaten
1 cup plain breadcrumbs
Kosher salt, to taste
Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
1/4 cup canola oil
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 (8-ounce) package sliced mushrooms
1 teaspoon chopped garlic
1 cup chicken broth
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1/3 cup sour cream
1 tablespoon chopped parsley, for garnish

Steps:

  • Remove the chicken breasts from the bone. Slice each breast in half lengthwise. Put them between pieces of plastic wrap and pound them with a mallet or a small skillet until they are 1/4-inch thick.
  • Set up a breading station with three pie plates or shallow dishes. Put the flour in one and season it with a generous pinch of salt and pepper, the eggs beaten with 2 tablespoons of water in another, and the breadcrumbs in the third. Dredge the chicken pieces in the flour, then the egg wash, then the breadcrumbs. Set aside. In a large skillet over medium heat, add the oil. When the oil is hot, add the chicken in 1 layer and cook until it is golden brown and crispy, about 4 minutes per side. Drain on brown paper and keep warm while you make the sauce.
  • In another skillet over medium heat, add the butter. When it is melted, add mushrooms and season them with salt and pepper. Cook until they are browned, about 6 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for 30 seconds then add the stock and simmer for 4 minutes and reduce by one third. Add the Worcestershire sauce, turn the heat off, and let cool for a minute before stirring in the sour cream. Serve the Schnitzel with the sauce poured over the top, garnished with parsley.

Tips:

  • For a crispy schnitzel, make sure to use thin slices of meat and pound them until they are very thin. This will help the meat cook evenly and become crispy.
  • Use a good quality breadcrumb mixture. You can use store-bought or make your own by combining breadcrumbs, grated Parmesan cheese, minced garlic, and dried herbs.
  • Make sure the oil is hot enough before adding the schnitzel. This will help the schnitzel brown evenly and prevent it from sticking to the pan.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan when cooking the schnitzel. This will help the schnitzel cook evenly and prevent it from steaming.
  • For a creamy mushroom sauce, use a combination of mushrooms, such as cremini, shiitake, and oyster mushrooms. Sauté the mushrooms in butter until they are soft and golden brown.
  • Add a splash of white wine or dry sherry to the mushroom sauce for extra flavor.
  • Serve the schnitzel with the mushroom sauce, mashed potatoes, or roasted vegetables.

Conclusion:

Schnitzel with mushroom sauce is a classic dish that is both delicious and easy to make. By following these tips, you can make a schnitzel that is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, with a creamy mushroom sauce that is full of flavor. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
