Ingredients
-
4 thin boneless pork
chops or veal chops
-
1/2 c. oil (I use olive

Directions
-
Heat the oil in a large
skillet at medium high heat.
-
Place each chop between
two sheets of plastic and pound with the smooth side of a meat
tenderizer until thin (1/4" - 3/8").
-
Beat the two eggs in a
bowl that is wide enough to dip the meat into.
-
Spread the bread crumbs
onto a plate or flat surface.
-
Take each cutlet, season
with salt and pepper and dip both sides of meat into eggs to coat.
-
Then coat the entire
cutlet with the bread crumbs.
-
Place in hot oil and cook
on both sides until golden brown.
-
It only takes about 1-2
minutes per side.
-
Serve each cutlet with
half a lemon on the side.
-
Some people go ahead and
squeeze the lemon onto the schnitzel before serving.
-
I prefer to squeeze the
lemon juice onto the meat just before I eat it. I prefer to serve
with half a lemon, rather than wedges, because it is not as messy
when you squeeze it. (Which you would appreciate if you have paper
cut)!
** Some people serve this with a fried egg placed on top of the
schnitzel.
Note: Serves 4
