Chicken Schnitzel with Mashed Potatoes and Tartar Sauce
Ingredients
Instructions
Mashed Potatoes
Peel and dice potatoes, cook in salted water until soft (15-18 min). Drain, add butter and warm milk gradually. Mix until smooth, season with salt and nutmeg.
Meat
Cut chicken breasts into slices (4-6 pieces). Gently flatten with foil, season with salt, and pepper.
Breading
Flour → eggs beaten with milk → breadcrumbs (do not press too much).
Frying
Heat oil/butter in a medium deep pan to 170-175°C. Fry schnitzels for 2.5-3.5 min on each side until golden brown. Place on paper towels.
Serving
Schnitzel, a dollop of mashed potatoes, a spoonful of tartar sauce. Optionally, sauerkraut or leafy salad.
Tip
Tip: Mix 1 teaspoon of mustard and a pinch of sweet paprika into the eggs – the coating will be tastier. After frying, let the cutlets "rest" on a rack for 2–3 minutes – they will remain crispy.
