Hasselback Pork Schnitzel Recipes

Steps:

• Grind the fennel seeds and red pepper flakes together in spice grinder or with mortar and pestle until coarsely ground. Transfer to a small bowl. Mix in the Italian seasoning, garlic powder and 1 tablespoon salt. Cut each tenderloin in half crosswise to make 4 equal pieces. Rub the fennel mixture all over pork and let sit at room temperature, uncovered, 1 hour, or chill up to 8 hours.
• Position a rack in center of oven preheat to 400 degrees F. Heat oil in a large cast iron skillet over medium high and cook onion and peppers, tossing occasionally, until they begin to soften, 5 about minutes. Stir in vinegar and season with salt. Let sit until cool enough to handle.
• Using a sharp knife, cut slices across each tenderloin, about 3/4-inch apart going as deep as possible but without cutting all the way through. Stuff about a tablespoon of onion mixture in between each slit arranging the vegetables neatly so that there is little overhanging the sides of the tenderloin. Repeat with remaining pork and vegetables. Transfer the stuffed tenderloins to a rimmed baking sheet spaced evenly apart and arrange any remaining vegetables around each tenderloin. Roast until thickest part of the tenderloin reaches 140 degrees F, about 20 minutes. Put 2 slices of cheese over each tenderloin and continue to bake until the cheese is melted, about 5 minutes. Let sit 10 minutes before serving. Sprinkle with parsley.

Steps:

• For the schnitzel: Add the flour to a shallow dish and season with the seasoning salt and a pinch of salt and pepper. Whisk together the milk and eggs in a separate shallow dish. Add the breadcrumbs and parsley to a third shallow dish.
• Heat the olive oil and butter in a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat.
• Season the pork chops with salt and pepper. Bread the pork by coating the chops lightly in the seasoned flour, then dipping them in the egg mixture. Next, coat the chops in the breadcrumbs. You can use your fingertips to really press the breadcrumbs onto the pork, which will help the breading stay on while frying.
• Carefully lay the pork chops in the skillet, cooking until golden and cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain slightly and squeeze over the lemon.
• For the cabbage. Meanwhile, heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the red onion and fennel and mustard seeds and cook, stirring frequently, 2 to 3 minutes, being careful as the seeds might pop slightly during cooking. Add the cabbage, apple cider, vinegar and honey and cook until the cabbage is softened and the liquid is reduced slightly, 4 to 5 minutes.
• For the sandwiches: Spread a heaping teaspoon each of mayo and mustard on both halves of each roll. Top the bottom half of each roll with 2 lettuce leaves, then top with a piece of schnitzel and some warm cabbage. Shingle over some slices of apple, then top with the other half of the roll. Serve with salt and vinegar potato chips.

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:

• For the pork schnitzel with lingonberry sauce: Heat a Dutch oven or heavy-bottomed pot over medium heat with 2 cups of the vegetable oil to 375 degrees F.
• Beat the eggs with the remaining 1 tablespoon vegetable oil in a shallow bowl. Put the flour in a second shallow bowl and the breadcrumbs in a third. Season the pounded pork cutlets with kosher salt and black pepper. Dredge in the flour first, then shake off the excess. Then coat in the egg, letting the excess drip off, then finally in the breadcrumbs, pressing to make sure it all sticks. Place onto a sheet pan lined with a wire rack and let it dry out for 5 minutes.
• Fry in batches, gently shaking to ensure no sticking and so the top of the cutlets get some love, until golden brown, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Let drain on a sheet pan lined with a second wire rack.
• Meanwhile, add the lingonberries, sugar and 1/4 cup water to a small saucepan. Cook over medium-high heat until the sauce is thickened and reduced, about 5 minutes. Adjust the sweetness with more sugar if necessary.
• For the German potato salad: Add the potatoes to a pot and cover with 2 inches of water. Add the kosher salt. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a gentle simmer and cook until the potatoes are knife-tender, 10 to 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat, add the bacon lardons and cook until crisp, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove the bacon with a slotted spoon and set aside, leaving the grease in the skillet. Add the onion and some sea salt and cook until translucent, about 5 minutes. Whisk in the vinegar and mustard until well combined.
• Drain the potatoes into a large bowl and immediately pour the warm mixture over the cooked potatoes; season with sea salt and pepper. Add the bacon and toss gently to combine. Top with the chives and serve warm!
• For the pickled red cabbage: In a small saucepan, bring the vinegar, sugar, kosher salt, pink peppercorns, garlic and 1 cup water to a simmer; simmer until the sugar and salt are dissolved. Add the cabbage to the warm pickling liquid and let sit for at least 1 hour.

Steps:

• Sprinkle the pork with 2 tablespoons salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Let sit at room temperature for 1 hour.
• Fill a heavy large pot with 4 inches of oil. Attach a deep-fry thermometer and heat to 350 degrees F.
• Cut each tenderloin in half crosswise to make 4 equal pieces. Using a sharp knife, cut slices across each tenderloin, about 1/2-inch apart going as deep as possible but without cutting all the way through.
• Put the panko, flour and eggs into 3 separate medium bowls. Working 1 piece at time, dredge each piece of pork in the flour, making sure to get flour into each slit. Shake off excess and then dip into the egg, making sure to coat the entire surface and slits. Let excess drip off and then dredge in the panko, patting down to get the panko to adhere and pushing and coating each of the slits. Repeat with the remaining pieces of pork.
• Working in 2 batches, fry the breaded pork until golden brown and crispy, 4 to 6 minutes. Transfer to a paper-towel-lined platter and let drain for 10 minutes. Serve with sauerkraut and spicy brown mustard.

Steps:

• For the bacon slaw: Put the bacon in a small skillet and cook over medium-low heat until browned and crisp, 8 to 10 minutes. Once the bacon has cooked, carefully pour off and discard all but about 1 tablespoon of the fat, then add the caraway seeds and cook, stirring, 30 seconds. Let cool, then transfer the bacon, caraway seeds and bacon fat to a bowl and add the cabbage and sauerkraut. Toss and season with salt and pepper.
• Meanwhile, for the schnitzel: Place a pork chop between two pieces of plastic (preferably from a resealable plastic bag). Use a meat mallet to pound the pork to an even thickness of about 1/4 inch to 1/2 inch. Repeat with the other pork chop.
• Put the flour in a wide, shallow bowl and whisk in the marjoram, paprika, nutmeg, caraway, 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper.
• Whisk the egg with 1 tablespoon water in another shallow bowl. Put the panko in third shallow bowl.
• Dredge one piece of pork in the seasoned flour, then shake off the excess. Dip it in the egg to coat and let the excess drip back into the bowl. Place it in the panko and turn it to coat, lightly pressing so that the crumbs adhere. Place it on a plate and repeat with the other piece of pork.
• Add about 1/8 inch of oil to a large skillet and heat it over medium-high heat until it shimmers. Add the pork and cook, turning once, until the chops are golden brown on both sides and just cooked through, 2 to 2 1/2 minutes per side. Transfer the schnitzel to a wire cooling rack set over a paper towel-lined baking sheet to drain briefly. Sprinkle with a little salt and pepper.
• Serve the schnitzel with the bacon slaw on the side.
