Why You’ll Love This Chicken Schnitzel Recipe
I’ve been making this dish on repeat lately. Here are a few reasons why.
Light, crispy breading. One of the keys to a good schnitzel is the perfect breading. It needs to be crispy but not too thick and fry easily without holding too much oil. This recipe does it perfectly.
Made with basic ingredients. If you have chicken breasts on hand, you like have everything you need to make this chicken schnitzel. It’s perfect for whipping up when you’re not sure what to make.
Great for busy weeknights. Not to mention that it takes less than 30 minutes to make this recipe. Since the chicken is pounded quite thin, it fries up quickly.
