Pork Schnitzel

Photobucket


So it's nearly impossible to go wrong with fried pork right? This is just a simple recipe for a simple pork schnitzel. There are so many recipes, so many kinds of schnitzel, so little time.

So to get the craving satisfied, this works.

A lot of pork schnitzel recipes call for pork loin chops, I used a pork tenderloin. I cut it in half, then I cut it into four smaller pieces. I then pounded the heck out of it with my trusted rolling pin, which serves many purposes in backwoods kitchen. Just remember to make it as thin as you can.

It worked great.

So then get yourself set up.

First you need about 1 cup flour, 1 tsp seasoned salt, pepper, and a little garlic powder. Mix that together on a plate, or your counter, whatever you are using.

Then beat one egg with 2 tablespoons of milk.

Then have your breadcrumbs ready. You can use any type of bread crumbs that suit your fancy, and you can add any kind of herbs or spices that you would like.

Take your pork cutlet, dredge it in the flour mixture, then the egg, then the breadcrumbs. Continue with the remaining cutlets, and put on a place.

Heat your pan up with your oil. You need enough to cover the bottom of the pan and a little extra. The pork does not need to be completely covered in oil, but you need a decent amount so it browns really good.

Cook it until nice and brown on both sides. This worked out to about 5-6 minutes a side for me.

It turns out really yummy, it was a hit with the other half, he loved this.
