Pork Schnitzel Recipe

14 Oct

Pork Schnitzel is a Austrian dish made with pork or veal, coated in breadcrumbs and fried. It is often topped with a sauce, which is why they're so special.

Until recently, when I heard the word Schnitzel I thought of  something sausage like.  In reality, Schnitzel is a traditional Austrian dish made with pork or veal, coated in breadcrumbs and fried.  It is often topped with a sauce, and this is what determines the different types and makes them very special.

Pork Schnitzel variations are found throughout the world, each country having a slightly different recipe.  I prefer to make a dish similar to the German recipe, which is a boneless pork cutlet or chop (can be made with veal if you prefer) pounded thin to about 1/4 inch, and breaded then fried in a pan with light oil.  Top it all off with an nice creamy sauce and you have one easy delicious dinner.
