Butter Schnitzel Recipes

Steps:

• Pound the pork chops with a spiked meat mallet until 1/4 inch thick; set aside. In a large bowl, combine the bread crumbs, Parmesan cheese, parsley flakes, salt, and pepper. Press the pork into the crumbs to bread thoroughly; set aside.
• Melt butter in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Stir in the garlic and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Pour in the wine and sliced mushrooms. Allow to simmer and cook until the mushrooms have softened, about 10 minutes. Stir together the cornstarch and water, then add to the mushroom sauce. Simmer until the sauce has thickened, then remove from the heat and set aside.
• Meanwhile, heat a few tablespoons of olive oil in a large, nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Fry the pork cutlets a few at a time until golden brown and cooked through, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Serve with reserved mushroom sauce.

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.

Steps:

• Slice pork into eight 1"-thick pieces.
• Pound each piece with a meat mallet to about 1/4" thickness.
• Season with salt and pepper.
• Place flour, eggs, and bread crumbs into three separate shallow dishes.
• Dredge each medallion first in flour, then in eggs, and finally in bread crumbs.
• Place breaded pork on a baking sheet or plate.
• Heat oil and 3 T. butter in a large saute pan over medium-high heat.
• Saute pork until golden brown, 2-3 minutes on each side.
• Remove from pan and keep warm in a 200° oven.
• Deglaze pan with wine; add lemon juice and simmer 3 minutes.
• Add heavy cream and simmer until reduced by half, about 1 minute.
• Off heat, whisk in butter 2 T. at a time.
• Stir in parsley; spoon sauce over medallions.
• Serve with lemon wedges.

Steps:

• Stretch a piece of plastic wrap over a chopping board; lay the steaks on top of plastic wrap; put another piece of plastic wrap on top. Use a rolling pin to bash the steaks until they are really flat and thin.
• Mix the flour and paprika with some salt and pepper on a plate.
• Put the egg and breadcrumbs on two separate plates.
• Dip the steaks in the flour first, then the egg, then the breadcrumbs.
• Heat 1 teaspoon butter and 1 teaspoon oil in a large frying pan.
• Cook one of the schnitzels for about 1 minute on each side until the breadcrumbs are golden and crispy.
• Repeat steps 4,5, and 6 for the other schnitzels.
• Serve with lemon wedges, salad and coleslaw.

Steps:

• Open out the thighs and place them between two squares of baking parchment. Bash the thighs with a rolling pin to flatten them, but not so violently that the chicken flesh starts to break up.
• Set out three shallow bowls. Fill one with the flour, the next with the beaten egg and the last one with the breadcrumbs. Season the thighs, then dip each one in the flour, then the egg, then the breadcrumbs. Set the coated thighs on a baking sheet.
• Heat the oil and butter in a large frying pan. Cook the thighs over a medium heat for 4 mins each side. The coating should be golden and the chicken cooked through. Season, then transfer to a roasting tin lined with kitchen paper and keep warm in a low oven.
• Wipe out the pan and add the butter. Cook until foaming and nutty (it will take about 3 mins for the butter to become brown), then add the capers and the rosemary and cook for 1 min more. Serve the schnitzels with the butter spooned over the top and the lemon wedges on the side.
