Pork Schnitzel With Smoked Gouda Sauce Recipes

PORK SCHNITZEL RECIPE

Steps:

• Line a cutting board with plastic wrap, place cutlets in a single layer on cutting board and cover with plastic wrap (this prevents splatter). Pound cutlets with a meat mallet or the back of a heavy saucepan, until 1/4" to 1/8" thick.
• Set up three bowls. In the first combine 1/3 cup flour, 1 Tbsp garlic salt, 1/2 tsp paprika and 1/2 tsp pepper. In the second, use a fork to beat 3 eggs. In the third bowl, add 2 cups panko crumbs.
• Dredge both sides of each pounded cutlet in flour then dip in beaten egg letting excess egg drip back into the bowl before breading in panko crumbs. It helps to use a fork for the dipping process to keep your hands clean. Repeat with remaining cutlets.
• Once all cutlets are breaded, heat a large non-stick pan over medium heat and add enough oil to cover the bottom of the pan. Once oil is hot, add breaded cutlets a few at a time and sauté 3-4 min per side or until cooked through. Reduce heat if browning too quickly. Remove to paper towel lined plate. Cut into one to check doneness - juices should run clear. Serve with lemon wedges, or ranch for children.

PORK SCHNITZEL MIT SMOKED GOUDA SAUCE

Steps:

• Pork Schnitzel: Using a meat mallet (or the back of a small pan) pound out the pork until it is 1/4" thick. Season well with salt and pepper.
• Combine breadcrumbs and basil; set aside.
• Whisk together egg and buttermilk; set aside.
• Dredge cutlets in flour, then buttermilk mixture and finally breadcrumbs. Place in single layer in a shallow dish, cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes to allow breading to stick and dry.
• Heat oil in large, heavy skillet over medium heat and fry cutlets on each side until golden brown, about 4-5 minutes each side. If necessary, finish in 350° oven for 5-8 min until internal temp reaches 145°. I accidentally purchased bone-in pork chops and finished the chops in the oven.
• Smoked Gouda Sauce: Heat butter over medium heat, add garlic, and cook 1 minute until fragrant.
• Whisk in flour and cook briefly, 1 minute more.
• Add cream and reduce until thickened, about 5 minutes, whisking constantly. Reduce heat to medium-low if necessary to avoid burning the sauce. Whisk in Gouda, season with salt to taste.
• Plate pork chops, garnish with black pepper and fresh basil ribbons and serve with the sauce immediately. I drizzled some sauce on the chops and placed the rest in a gravy boat.

PORK SCHNITZEL WITH DIPPING SAUCE

Steps:

• Place the pork chops between two sheets of heavy plastic (resealable freezer bags work well) on a solid, level surface. Firmly pound the pork with the smooth side of a meat mallet to a thickness of 1/8-inch. Trim any fat from the edges, and make a few small slits along the edge to prevent the pork from curling during cooking.
• Combine the flour, 1 teaspoon salt, and pepper in a bowl. Whisk the egg and milk together in another bowl until well blended, then mix the panko bread crumbs and paprika together in a third bowl. Dredge the pork chops in the flour mixture one at a time, then dip them into the egg mixture followed by the panko mixture.
• Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Arrange no more than two pork chops in the skillet at a time, cooking until the meat is golden brown no longer pink in the center, 3 to 4 minutes on each side. Place the pork chops in a warm oven to keep warm.
• Pour the chicken stock into the skillet used to cook the pork. Reduce the heat to low, and scrape up any brown bits in the bottom of the pan. As the stock simmers, mix the dill, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and sour cream together in a bowl. Whisk about 1/4 cup of the hot stock into the sour cream mixture, then pour it back into the skillet. Heat until warm and thick, about 5 minutes. Serve with the pork chops.
