Chicken Or Pork Schnitzel With French Fries And Coleslaw Salad Recipe

Crispy Schnitzel

1. Prepare your choice of meat (either chicken or pork) by pounding it to an even thickness of about 1/4 inch. Season both sides of the meat with salt and pepper. 2. Prepare three shallow dishes: one with flour, one with beaten eggs, and one with breadcrumbs. 3. Dredge the meat first in flour, shaking off any excess, then dip in the beaten eggs, and finally coat thoroughly with breadcrumbs. 4. Heat a generous amount of oil in a frying pan over medium-high heat. Fry the schnitzel for about 3-5 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Set aside on paper towels to drain any excess oil.

Golden French Fries

1. Peel and cut potatoes into slender fries. Soak in cold water for at least 30 minutes to remove excess starch. 2. Heat oil in a deep fryer or large pot to 375°F (190°C). Drain the fries and pat dry with paper towels. 3. Fry the potatoes in batches, without overcrowding the pan, until golden brown and crispy, about 5-7 minutes per batch. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. Season with salt immediately.

Fresh Coleslaw Salad

1. In a large bowl, mix shredded green and red cabbage with sweet corn kernels. 2. Prepare a light dressing by whisking together mayonnaise (or a lighter alternative like yogurt) with a dash of vinegar, sugar, salt, and pepper. Add a finely chopped herb, such as chives or parsley, for extra freshness. 3. Combine the dressing with the cabbage mixture until evenly coated. Let it sit for at least 10 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld.
