Ingredients
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (150g each)
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 eggs
- 1 cup breadcrumbs
- 1/4 cup vegetable oil
- Lemon wedges, for serving
Directions
-
Start by preparing the chicken breasts. Place each chicken breast between two sheets of plastic wrap and use a rolling pin to gently pound them until they are about 1/4 inch thick. This will make them tender and cook evenly.
-
Set up a breading station. Place the flour in a shallow dish, beat the eggs in another dish, and put the breadcrumbs in a third dish. This will make it easier to coat the chicken later.
-
Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
-
Take a chicken breast and coat it in the flour, shaking off any excess. Dip it into the beaten eggs, making sure it is fully coated. Finally, press the chicken into the breadcrumbs, ensuring an even coating.
-
Carefully place the breaded chicken breast into the hot oil. Cook for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
-
Remove the chicken from the skillet and place it on a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil.
-
Repeat the breading and cooking process with the remaining chicken breasts.
-
Serve the Wiener Schnitzel hot with lemon wedges on the side for squeezing over the top. Enjoy!
