Who could say no to a hot, crispy homemade chicken schnitzel? Kids and parents alike will love this easy-to-whip up dinner.
1 1/2 lb. boneless, skinless chicken breasts, butterflied or pounded to 1/4- to 1/8-in. thick
1/2 tsp salt
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
2 large eggs
1 tbsp Dijon mustard
1 1/2 cups panko bread crumbs
1/4 cup ground flaxseed
1 tsp chili powder
1/4 cup canola oil
Season chicken with salt. Place flour in a shallow bowl. In a second shallow bowl, beat eggs together with mustard. In a third shallow dish, combine panko, flax and chili powder.
Dredge chicken first in flour, then in eggs to moisten, and finally in panko to coat. Lay chicken on a baking sheet and repeat with remaining chicken pieces. Heat 2 tbsp oil in a large frying pan on medium heat. Working in batches, and adding remaining oil as needed, fry chicken for 2 min per side or until crumbs are golden and chicken is cooked through.
