Crispy Breaded Schnitzel


Who doesn't like shnitzel, right? Glad you agree. If you don't, run along now. Anyways, I would have to say that schnitzel ranks pretty high in our family's all time favorite chicken list, and over the years my recipe for schnitzel has been tweaked to perfection.( If I may say so myself) So, as a special present to you, behold....my very own schnitzel recipe....with a delicious dip to go with it!


Breaded Schnitzel
2 pounds chicken breast, cut into 4 inch strips
1 cup flour
1 cup cornflake crumbs
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon cajun spice
1/2-1 teaspoon Montreal Chicken Seasoning
salt to taste
2 eggs
1/4 cup duck sauce
1/4 cup soy milk


In a medium size bowl, combine the flour, cornflake crumbs and seasonings. In a seperate bowl, whisk eggs, duck sauce and soy milk. In a large frying pan, heat about an inch of oil over a medium flame. Once it is hot, dip the chicken into the flour mixture, then the egg mixture, and the flour mixture again. Fry on each side for about 2 minutes, or until it is golden brown. 


Ketchup Dip
1 cup brown sugar
1/3 cup ketchup
2-3 tablespoons vinegar
1/2 tbl mustard
1/2 tsp garlic powder
3 tbs. sesame seeds


Combine all the ingredients in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium flame, and stir until thickens. Allow to cool before serving.


For a really nice presentation, put the dip in a gravy dish or teacup in the middle of a large serving plate, and arrange the pieces of schnitzel around the dip. 


Enjoy!

  3. This dipping sauce is amazing!! My guests couldn't believe that it was not store bought!! This week I made small schnitzel bits dipped in eggs and flour then fried and doubled this dipping sauce recipe, added water to it and covered the schnitzel with it. I think it'll be really good this way also...
