Ingredients
- 400 g chicken breast
- 2 eggs
- 1 cup breadcrumbs
- 1 cup flour
- 1 tsp mustard
- Salt & Pepper
- Sunflower oil
Instructions
- Slice chicken breasts horizontally to about 1cm thickness. Place a piece of plastic food paper and beat with meat tenderizer till the chicken becomes twice thinner.
- Sprinkle chicken with salt and pepper on both sides.
- Prepare dippings: in a plate add flour, in a bowl add eggs and a spoon of mustard – mix everything well and in one more plate add breadcrumbs.
- Preheat the pan to medium high, add sunflower oil so the whole bottom of the pan is covered.
- Dip chicken in flour (make sure that every part of the chicken is covered), then into the egg mixture and in the breadcrumbs. Add 1 or 2 pieces of the chicken in the pan (if you add more it won’t cook evenly). Fry until both sides of the chicken becomes golden brown.
- Place chicken on a paper towel to absorb excess oil.
- Serve with the mashed potatoes and squeeze lemon juice on the top of schnitzel.
