PORK SCHNITZEL
This is adapted from our Weiner Schnitzel recipe.
Ingredients:
1 Pork tenderloin from a package of 2
2 Eggs, well beaten
1 cup Flour
1.5 cups Bread Crumbs, plain (stale bread?)
1 stick salted butter
1 Lemon
Parsley
Procedures:
Cut the pork tenderloin into 1/2" cutlets, lightly salt.
Coat the cutlets one at a time.
>Dip a cutlet into the flour, pressing so the flour adheres.
>Dip the cutlet in the beaten eggs, coating thoroughly.
>Dip the cutlet in the bread crumbs, allowing a thin coating; not too thick.
[Cutlets can be left to stand for 2 hours in a cool room before cooking.]
Heat the butter, over medium-high heat.
Working one at a time, cook the cutlets 2 minutes per side.
Transfer to paper towels and blot both sides.
Garnish with lemon wedges and parsley or sprinkle with lemon juice.
