Knuspr-Küche
Preparation method
Ingredients overview
- 500 g chicken breast fillet without skin
- 1 egg size M
- 3 tbsp low-fat milk 1.5% fat
- 60 g grated Parmesan
- 50 g wheat flour Type 405
- 70 g classic breadcrumbs
- 200 ml rapeseed oil
- 1 tsp sweet paprika powder
- 1 pinch salt
- 1 pinch ground black pepper
First, prepare the chicken: Slice the chicken breast fillets lengthwise to make them thinner, and lightly salt them.
Now prepare three deep plates for the breading station: In the first plate, add the flour, 1/2 tsp salt, pepper, and paprika powder. In the second plate, whisk the egg with the milk and a pinch of salt. In the third plate, mix the breadcrumbs with the finely grated Parmesan.
Pour approx. 0.5 cm of rapeseed oil into a deep pan (⌀ 20–22 cm) and heat it. First, dredge the chicken in the flour, then dip it in the egg-milk mixture, and finally roll it in the Parmesan-breadcrumb mixture. Fry the schnitzels over medium heat for 2–4 minutes per side until golden brown (the duration depends on the thickness of the meat).
Chef's tip
Serve the schnitzels with a squeeze of fresh lemon and a light green salad or parsley potatoes.
