Weiner Schnitzel, Veal Cutlettes With Lemon Ingredients

4 large veal chops boned	1/4 teaspoon powdered thyme
2 eggs, beaten	1/4 teaspoon onion powder
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice	1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1 cup bread crumbs (plain or Italian)	1/4 teaspoon paprika
1/4 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese	3 tablespoons butter or olive oil
1/2 teaspoon salt	4 lemon wedges
1/4 teaspoon white pepper	4 parsley sprigs

Instructions for Weiner Schnitzel, Veal Cutlettes With Lemon

Pound veal with a meat pounder until very thin, being careful not to tear the meat.

Beat the eggs with lemon juice. Set aside.

Combine bread crumbs, cheese, and seasonings. Dip the veal in egg mixture and then in the bread crumb mixture, coating evenly.

Place the meat on a cookie sheet in single layer and refrigerate, covered with wax paper, for at least 1 hour to help keep coating intact when cooking.

Saute veal until lightly browned on both sides, 7-10 minutes in all, in
butter or olive oil.

Serve immediately, garnished with lemon wedges and parsley.

An excellent recipe. I modified this a lot (as I do for most recipes) but the three great tips she gives are 1) the lemon egg mixture, 2) letting the breaded product cool for an hour and 3) pounding it thin. I loved it.

I've just returned from Dresden Germany. After 2 years of Schnitzel I can tell you this is the real deal! I use pork and chicken filets pounded down as thin as possible. To make this more authentic, serve over fried potatoes, covered with fresh mushroom gravy and serve with a cold beer! If your counting calories, save for a later date!!
