Chicken schnitzels
Description
Essentially, the recipe for chicken schnitzel is no different from that of pork schnitzel—the preparation is exactly the same, only chicken meat is used instead of pork. Chicken schnitzels are perfect for a quick lunch or dinner, as they take only about 20 minutes to prepare. They also make a great addition to your workday meal when paired with bread—resulting in very satisfying and delicious sandwiches.
