Step by Step guide

Step 1

Cut a piece of meat about 1.5-2 cm thick in half lengthwise (but not all the way through), open it like a butterfly, and pound it with a flat mallet between sheets of parchment paper brushed with olive oil until it is 4-5 mm thick.

Step 2

Beat the egg, add salt and pepper. Season the meat with salt and pepper, then coat it in flour, dip it in the egg, and roll it in breadcrumbs. Place the schnitzel in the refrigerator for 5 minutes to set the coating.

Step 3

Fry in a cast-iron skillet over medium heat for 4 minutes, basting with hot oil from the pan. Flip and fry for another 3 minutes until golden brown. Remove from the pan, blot excess oil with a kitchen towel, and serve with lemon and salad.
