Chicken breast schnitzel
Chicken schnitzel is a great solution for both a family feast and a warm friendly meeting. Agree, we all love breaded dishes - not very difficult to make and sending somewhere back to childhood ...
Ingredients
Servings 4- 4 medium chicken breast fillets
- 1 large egg
- 1 st. l. heavy cream
- 1 cup flour
- 3 slices stale white bread
- ghee
- 1 h. l. peppers
- salt
- freshly ground black pepper
- lemon for serving
Cooking
Step 1
Remove the crusts from the bread, cut the flesh into small pieces, then chop smaller, almost into crumbs. Pour the bread into a bowl. In the second bowl, beat the egg with a pinch of salt and cream. In the third, mix flour with salt, pepper and paprika.
Step 2
Beat the chicken fillet into 1 cm thick layers. In a large frying pan (or two at once), heat the oil with a 1 cm layer.
Step 3
Roll each schnitzel first in flour (shake off excess), then in egg (shake off excess) and bread slices. Place immediately in hot oil.
Step 4
Fry the schnitzels until golden brown on both sides. Put the finished ones on crumpled paper towels to drain the oil. Serve hot with a lemon wedge.
