My Schnitzel Recipe, (Or Fried Chicken Tenders)
"B"H
This recipe makes an awesome crunchy fried chicken tender. Everyone raves about how good this schnitzel is. It's just a modification of the recipe my mother used for fried chicken, but using matzo meal instead of flour. I make several pounds at a time and freeze it for later use. It freezes well and is great hot or cold!"

Hello! I live in Chandler, AZ. I stay home and school my youngest son. I used to cook much more than I do now. I have fallen into habitual cooking; cooking only those things with which I am most familiar, and find easy. I'm hoping that joining Recipezaar will provide the inspiration to get away from cooking the same things over and over.
My favorite cookbook is The California Pizza Kitchen Cookbook. It's small, but fabulous! My favorite recipes from it are Tuscan Hummus and Checca, and Apple crisp.
