Panko Crusted Pork Schnitzel Food

PANKO-CRUSTED PORK SCHNITZEL

Steps:

• Place the pork cutlets in individual Ziploc bags. Using a mallet or the back of a saucepan or pot, flatten the pork until it is about ½-inch thick. Remove from bags and season liberally with salt and pepper on both sides.
• Set up your breading station by whisking the milk and egg together on one shallow plate. On another plate beside it, add the panko breadcrumbs. One piece of pork at a time, coat the cutlet in the milk-egg mixture and then coat it in the breadcrumbs.
• Heat the canola oil in a large saucepan over medium-high heat and then carefully drop in the breaded cutlets. Cook for about 5 minutes on each side, or until the meat is cooked through and the coating golden brown.
• Serve with a couple wedges of lemon as desired.
