*** CHICKEN SHNITZEL *** A shnitzel is a boneless cut of meat that is flattened and then coated and fried. This recipe creates the best and most tender chicken shnitzels with a lovely crispy coating. The dish goes beautifully with mashed potatoes or fries. (serves 2) INGREDIENTS FOR MARINATION: 2 thick chicken breasts, boneless and skin removed 1 cup buttermilk (or mix half cup yoghurt with half cup milk) 1/4 tsp. garlic paste 1/4 tsp. ginger paste 1/2 tsp. salt 1/2 tsp. black pepper powder 1/2 tsp. dried oregano 1 tsp. red chilli powder (optional) juice of half a lemon OTHER INGREDIENTS: 1/2 - 3/4 cup plain flour 1/4 tsp. salt 1/4 tsp. black pepper powder 1 cup breadcrumbs (you can add spices or herbs in them if you want) 1 egg, beaten with 1 tbsp. milk 1/2 cup oil for shallow frying INSTRUCTIONS: Trim any excess fat and clean the chicken breasts. Then put each chicken breast between two pieces of cling film and pound it down to flatten it to about quarter inch thickness without tearing the meat. This will help the shnitzels to cook quickly and evenly. Then put these flattened slices in the marination ingredients and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or up to overnight. When ready to cook, remove the slices out of the marinade and shake off any excess mixture from them. Do not rinse them out as that will get rid of all the flavour. Set them aside on a plate to allow the chill from the chicken to reduce for about 15 minutes. ••• INSTRUCTIONS CONTINUED IN COMMENTS BELOW ••• • • • #fauziaskitchenfun #shnitzel #halalfoodie #fauziaskitchenfunrecipe #bonelessmeat #bonelessmeat #sideoffries #salad #meatofinstagram #tryittoday #sharethelove https://www.instagram.com/p/CObUZ5nHwv-/?igshid=13i2k1tj91mm3
