Best Pork Schnitzel My Way Recipes
PORK SCHNITZEL
Steps:
- Begin by placing each chop between 2 sheets of plastic wrap and gently pounding them out with the flat side of a meat tenderizer until they are an even 1/4-inch thick.
- Put the flour in a shallow dish and season with salt and pepper. Whisk the eggs and milk in another shallow dish and season with salt and pepper. Put the bread crumbs in a third dish and again season with salt and pepper. Lightly dredge each piece of pork in flour, then in the egg and finally into the bread crumbs, pressing the bread crumbs onto the pork gently so they have a nice even coating.
- Lay the breaded pork cutlets in a single layer on a plate lined with parchment and refrigerate, uncovered, for 10 to 12 minutes to allow the coating to dry out a little and adhere to the pork.
- Heat oil and butter in large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the thyme sprig and let it fry for about 1 minute to infuse the oil. Remove the thyme sprig and reserve. Gently lay the cutlets into the pan and cook until golden brown and crispy, about 3 minutes per side. Remove to paper towels to drain. Season with salt and transfer to a serving platter while still hot. Garnish with lemon wedges and the fried thyme sprig before serving.
PORK SCHNITZEL WITH SAUCE

PORK SCHNITZEL
If I need a sure-fire winner dinner, it's schnitzel. My son, who never stops moving long enough to eat anything hot, will always sit still for schnitzel. It's a weeknight dinner worth sitting down at the dining table for (even though it's so good it's gone fast), lighting candles and getting cozy on a cold night. You can make it with chicken cutlets or pork loin cut into cutlets. Either way, it needs to be pounded super thin, so that you can cook it quickly and keep the inside moist and the outside super crunchy. Parmesan is not traditional in schnitzel, but I add just a bit to keep the crust super crunchy and big on flavor, since it can be so easy to underseason your breadcrumbs and end up with a bland-tasting schnitzel instead of one that crackles and sings with flavor.

Steps:
- Freeze the pork loin until lightly firm at the edges, about 1 hour. Slice the pork as thin as you can (about an 1/8 inch thick) and lay each slice between 2 pieces of parchment or plastic wrap. Gently pound to create super thin cutlets, then season the pork on both sides lightly with salt and pepper.
- Combine the panko and Parmesan in a shallow bowl. Place the flour and eggs each in their own separate shallow bowls.
- Working with one piece of pork at a time, dredge in the flour, then dip in the eggs, letting the excess drip off, then coat in the panko-Parmesan mixture, shaking off any excess. Set on a parchment-lined baking sheet and repeat with the remaining pork.
- Heat 2 tablespoons of the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Set a wire rack inside a second baking sheet. Cook the pork, 1 to 2 pieces at a time, until brown and cooked through, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer the cooked pork to the wire rack. Continue with the remaining pork, wiping out the skillet as needed and adding the remaining 2 tablespoons oil.
- Sprinkle the cooked pork with flaky sea salt. Serve hot, with lemon wedges for squeezing over the top.
SHEET-PAN CRISPY PORK SCHNITZEL
Schnitzel is a way of preparing thin slices of meat by breading and frying them until crisp. While the popular Viennese dish is traditionally made with thinly pounded veal, here, pounded pork cutlets are breaded and baked on a sheet pan - rather than fried in a skillet - until golden for an easy weeknight meal. The key to perfectly brown breadcrumbs is the addition of a few dollops of mayonnaise, which helps the coating crisp up during baking. A tangy salad offers fresh and bright notes that balance the rich pork. Look for whole hearts of palm (cylinders rather than sliced) for their firmer texture; the vegetable has a delicate flavor similar to artichokes, with a crunchy-creamy consistency.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 400 degrees. Lightly grease a rimmed baking sheet.
- Separately place flour and eggs in two shallow bowls. Beat the eggs, then stir in the garlic. In a third shallow bowl, whisk 3 tablespoons of the oil with mayonnaise until well blended, then add breadcrumbs and mix with your fingers until there are no clumps, and oil is evenly distributed.
- Season pork with salt and pepper. Working with one piece at a time, dredge in flour (shake off excess), dip in egg (shake off excess) and dredge in breadcrumbs, pressing to adhere. Transfer to the prepared baking sheet. Bake until golden and crispy, about 20 to 25 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
- Meanwhile, in a large bowl combine the remaining 6 tablespoons oil, 2 tablespoons lemon juice from 1 lemon, capers, caper brine and parsley, and whisk until well blended. Season with salt and pepper. Add hearts of palm, celery and tomatoes and toss to evenly coat.
- Divide schnitzel and salad on 4 serving plates, cut the other lemon into wedges and serve alongside.
