Prep

Turn on Oven to 350 degrees

Divide your dry spice seasoning between the flour and bread crumbs. Place them in individual bowls, You are building a breading station.

Egg wash

Seasoned Bread Crumbs

Dip pork schnitzel in seasoned flour, then in the egg wash mixture and finally in the bread crumb mixture. Make sure you press the breadcrumbs into the pork schnitzel.

Heat up a large frypan on med heat, place some bacon fat into the pan. Add the pork chops to the pan, add clarified butter to the top off the schnitzel, brown in the pan approx. 5 min on each side or until golden brown.

  • Don’t overload your pan

Once the schnitzel are browned place on a baking sheet pan with parchment paper and place in a 350 degree oven for 10 minutes.
