A favorite in our house.
INGREDIENTS
4 chicken breasts
¼ cup plain flour
1 egg, lightly beaten
¼ cup milk
1 cup breadcrumbs
2 Tbs olive oil
2 Tbs butter
1. Use meat mallet to pound chicken until it is fairly thin
2. Dust chicken lightly with flour; shake off excess flour.
3. Dip chicken into combined eggs and milk.
4. Coat with bread crumbs; press crumbs on firmly. Refrigerate 1 hour before cooking.
5. Heat oil and butter in large frying pan; cook chicken about 3 minutes, each side, or until crumbs are golden brown; drain on kitchen paper.
Serve immediately with hot vegetables or salad and lemon wedges, if desired. We like ours with boiled potatoes and little lingonberry jam.
Serves 4
* If you substitute veal for the chicken breasts it is Wiener Schnitzel.

Thanks for reminding me about those! I really wanted to try this recipe but somehow I forgot. My hubby is going to be a happy man when I make these!
1Oh I know he will.
2Sounds good. They seriously only need a few minutes a side?
A little prep, but fast and simple to cook!

Yes, if you've given them a good beating, they should only take a few minutes on each side.
4Cool, I can give them a good beating! Get my frustrations out! lol
5I'm going to try these with Trent.

Yum! I'll add it to my repertoire!
6Looks delicious! I love wiener schnitzel.
7Sounds delicious and fast!
8I make a version of this for my family on a regular basis but I bake the chicken instead of fry it. Fried foods make my tummy hurt. I also coat the chicken in ranch dressing sometimes instead of the egg mixture. It makes the chicken super duper moist!
9YUMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM!
10This looks yummy. I needed this last night. I had the chicken and the bread crumbs, but didn't know what to do with it. I should have pounded it, because I ended up burning it
11Twinkle, do you know if you cook the veal exactly the same as the chicken? Does it need more or less time or heat? I've got a serious hankerin' now, and this seems so easy!
12Yes, it's the same for veal. This was originally a recipe for Wiener Schnitzel.
13Great - thanks!
14VERY NICE!!!!!!!
15Thank you for posting that AWESOME dish!!!
I made this for dinner and it was so delicious, I wish I had made more.
The lingonberry jam and
lemon worked really well with this.
16Just a bump to say I've made this, like, 385873290121 times since it was posted, and it's become a new household favorite. I've started putting a little lemon pepper in the bread crumbs, and it's really delicious. Terrific taste, and it's so easy!
17I'm making some tomorrow night.
18Added to favourites, thanks!
19I've got 4 chicken breats defrosted for tomorrow that I wasn't sure what to do with. Now I know! Thanks Twink and Moto for the bump.
20Sounds like a great recipe-I will try it for sure!
