Ingredients
Show ingredients
- chicken thigh fillet or chicken breast - 4 pcs;
- black pepper - a pinch;
- breadcrumbs - optional;
- eggs - 2 pcs;
- herb mix for chicken - 1 tbsp;
- salt - to taste;
- flour - 4 tbsp;
- garlic - 2 cloves.
Preparation
- Thoroughly rinse the chicken thigh fillet. Cover the meat with plastic wrap and pound it with a meat mallet. You can also use chicken breast. Pounding the meat through the wrap is needed to avoid damaging the meat fibers. Rub the schnitzel pieces well with aromatic herbs, salt, crushed garlic, and pepper. Place the meat on a plate and cover it with plastic wrap. Put the chicken schnitzels in the refrigerator overnight.
- Prepare the ingredients for the batter. Beat the eggs with salt and pepper to taste, and season the breadcrumbs and flour. Dredge each piece of chicken in flour, dip it in the egg mixture, and then thoroughly coat it with breadcrumbs.
- Fry the schnitzels in heated olive oil. It is best to cook the dish over low heat so that the meat cooks through and the crust acquires a bright golden color.
- Place the schnitzel on a serving plate. Complement with the traditional sauce "Chimichurri" or hot mustard. Enjoy your meal!
