Granny’s German Schnitzel Recipe has been passed down for generations. Use this same method for pork schnitzel, veal schnitzel (weiner schnitzel), or chicken schnitzel.
✅Ingredients
• 4 boneless pork or veal chops
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 2 large eggs
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 1 cup plain bread crumbs
• Vegetable oil for frying
✅Instructions
1️⃣ 00:00:25 – Trim meat of any unwanted fat (if desired). Lay the pork or veal chops out on a countertop between two layers of plastic wrap. Pound out chops until 1/4 inch thick. Season with salt and pepper.
2️⃣ 00:00:45 – Spread flour out into a shallow dish. In another shallow dish, whisk eggs together with lemon juice. In a third shallow dish, spread out bread crumbs.
3️⃣ 00:01:19 – Pour about 1/4 inch of vegetable oil into a large deep skillet. Bring oil to 350 degrees F.
4️⃣ 00:01:31 – Dredge chops into flour to coat, then immediately dip into eggs to coat, followed by bread crumbs to coat.
5️⃣ 00:01:48 – Place chops into the hot oil and fry 3 to 4 minutes. Work in batches if needed based on size of pan. Chops shouldn’t be crowded.
6️⃣ 00:01:57 – Gently flip over and cook for an additional 3 to 4 minutes on the other side until chop reaches a minimum internal temperature of 145 F and is browned and crisp.
7️⃣ 00:02:17 – Serve hot with lemon slices.
