Pork Schnitzel With Noodles And Browned Cabbage Recipes

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:

• Heat oven to 425°F.
• Spray baking sheet with cooking spray. Whisk egg and 1 Tbsp. mustard in shallow dish until blended. Empty coating mix onto plate. Dip chops, 1 at a time, into egg mixture, then coating mix, turning to evenly coat both sides of each chop with each ingredient; place on prepared baking sheet. Discard any remaining coating mix from plate.
• Bake 10 min. or until chops are done (145°F), removing chops from oven when done and covering to keep warm.
• Meanwhile, cook and stir bacon in large skillet until crisp. Remove bacon from skillet with slotted spoon; drain on paper towels. Discard all but 2 Tbsp. drippings from skillet. Add cabbage and shallots to reserved drippings; cook and stir 4 min. Add chicken broth, vinegar, sugar, bacon and remaining mustard; stir until blended. Cook 6 to 8 min. or until cabbage is crisp-tender, stirring frequently.
• Serve chops with cabbage mixture.

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.
