Best 3 Schweineschnitzel Recipes

SCHWEINESCHNITZEL OR WIENERSCHNITZEL (GERMAN PORK OR VEAL CUTLETS)

Steps:

• Cooked egg noodles, spaetzle/dumplings or boiled potatoes, for serving (see Cook's Note)
• Using a mallet and slow, even strokes down and away or towards the body, pound meat to 1/8- to 1/4-inch thick. (Parchment paper or plastic wrap can help control the strokes and guard the meat, optional.)
• Season the thin cutlets lightly with salt, pepper and white pepper and granulated onion or rub in freshly grated onion.
• Set up a breading station in 3 shallow metal pans or dishes: Flour seasoned with a little salt; eggs and milk whisked together with Dijon mustard; breadcrumbs seasoned with a little salt, freshly grated nutmeg, lemon zest.
• Coat meat in flour, shake off excess, coat in egg, drain excess, then press and evenly coat in breadcrumbs.
• Place a large, wide skillet over medium to medium-high heat on the stovetop and place a baking sheet lined with a wire rack alongside it for transferring cooked cutlets. Add about 3 tablespoons of oil, 3 turns of the pan, enough to coat to skillet, and when it ripples and is hot, add the cutlets.
• Cook the cutlets in 1 or 2 batches to avoid crowding pan, turning once, until deeply golden, 4 to 5 minutes turning once, in 1 or 2 batches to avoid crowding pan. RRemove to a wire rack-lined baking sheet.
• Serve schnitzel with lemon wedges, capers, dill and Cucumber Salad or cornichons, egg noodles, spaetzle or boiled or steamed potatoes with butter, parsley and chives.
• Whisk up dressing and toss with cucumbers and dill.
