Chicken Schnitzel Recipe

Take a chicken breast, slice it in half length ways (so you have two long flat pieces of chicken). Then place the chicken between two pieces of plastic wrap and have fun bashing it with a mallet or rolling pin!

Next, we need to get it smothered in breadcrumbs. For crumbing chicken schnitzel, you need to prepare three bowls: one with flour, one with beaten egg, and one with seasoned breadcrumbs.

I also like to make a parmesan schnitzel, by adding in some grated parmesan to the breadcrumbs. This not only makes it extra tasty, but helps moisten the chicken and give a nice brown finish to it.

When cooking chicken schnitzel, you need to heat the oil and butter in a frying pan until it is bubbling hot, then add the schnitzel. It should sizzle as it hits the pan.
