Schweine Schnitzel

When we were back home for the Holidays my Mom decided to make Schweine Schnitzel, which is like Weiner Schnitzel, but made with pork instead of veal. This is a much more affordable option, especially if you are making it for a crowd like we were! There are a lot of steps but it’s so worth it! 

Tips: Use paper plates for the flour and crackers, this way there is less mess to clean up! Place plastic wrap under and over the pork before you pound it out!

Here’s what you’ll need:

Boneless Porkchops

6 Eggs

3/4 cup Flour

Saltine Crackers, crushed

Salt & Pepper to taste

Oil for cooking

Lemons

Here’s how you make it:

 

First slice your pork chops in half, and then pound them to about a ¼ inch thickness. Then make up 3 different stations. One plate with flour, one with eggs, and one for the crackers. Take the pork chops and dredge it in the flour first, then the egg and then the crackers. Meanwhile heat a griddle or skillet with oil over medium heat. Place the pork onto the griddle and brown on each side, cooking until the meat is no longer pink. Squirt lemon juice over the schnitzel. Serve with noodles or potatoes.

ENJOY!
