Tips & Secrets
- Pounding the chicken to an even and thin thickness is the secret to achieving that traditional large Schnitzel look.
- Seasoning the flour instead of just the chicken ensures every part of the breading is packed with flavor.
- Using a wire rack for draining is crucial; it prevents steam from making the bottom of the Schnitzel soggy.
- Frying in enough oil so that the cutlets 'float' slightly ensures an even and golden color.
