Instructions

  1. Pound the chicken breasts flat between film (about 1 cm), season with salt and pepper.
  2. Set out three plates: flour, whisked eggs, breadcrumbs.
  3. Dredge the schnitzels first in flour, then through the egg and finally press firmly into the breadcrumbs.
  4. Heat clarified butter in a large pan over medium heat until it shimmers.
  5. Fry the schnitzels for 3–4 min per side until golden brown, turning once; drain on paper towels.
  6. Serve with lemon wedges – potato salad or fries go well with it.
