Chicken Schnitzel Recipe | How to Make Chicken Schnitzel

Cut each chicken breast into two pieces.

Place each piece of chicken breast between two sheets of plastic wrap.

Use a mallet or a rolling pin to pound the breasts until they are about ¼ inch (1/2cm) thick.

Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper. Set aside.

Set up three wide and shallow bowls/plates. In the first bowl place flour, in the second beat eggs with mustard, in the third bowl mix breadcrumbs, salt, pepper and paprika.

Start by coating the chicken in the flour mixture first, shaking off any excess, then dip in egg mixture, then coat with breadcrumbs.

In a large skillet or pan, heat oil. Once the oil is hot enough place a schnitzel into the skillet and fry until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes on each side.

Transfer to a plate lined with paper towels.

Serve with fresh salad and enjoy!
