Lemon Chicken Schnitzel
Serves 4A recipe from
Shannon. This one's low in fat and very tasty. She often makes this as an
accompaniment to the vodka sauce. Add a salad and it's a great menu for any time of
year.
Ingredients:
- 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- Juice of one lemon
- 1/4 cup all purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon thyme
- 1/2 teaspoon celery salt
- 1 egg
- 1 teaspoon water
- 1/2 cup fine dry breadcrumbs
Method
- Cut chicken horizontally into 1/4 inch thick slices (this is
a little easier if the chicken is partly frozen). Flatten between sheets of wax
paper with a rolling pin. Sprinkle chicken with lemon juice; let stand 10 minutes.
- In shallow dish, combine flour, salt, thyme and celery salt;
mix well. In another dish beat egg with water.
- Dip chicken pieces into flour mixture, then into egg
mixture, then into bread crumbs.
- Place on lightly greased baking sheet. Bake at 400° F
for 10-15 minutes.
