  1. I used a boneless tenderized pork Schnitzel, lots of onions and it was great - Plain easy ingredients that anyone can whip together. When the schnizel is getting just the right golden color slip the onions under them turn to low and let those onions get that carmelized look - Loved the recipe I may throw in a little chili flake or worchestershire next time but I loves it as is Thanks Kree
     
  2. Lovely simple recipe and it worked a treat, once again recipezaar members come up trumps. I confess I cooked in butter not margarine (not keen on margarine), and secondly was worried the salt and pepper would fall off when dipped in egg (was using cracked pepper and maldon salt) so I lightly hammered the cracked pepper and flake salt into each fillet - it really worked a treat, am going to do that again. Recipe was superb, thank you so much for sharing this recipe.
     
  3. I can't believe I haven't rated this, 'cause I cook it all the time! It is one of my son's frequently requested recipes. The only changes I made were to use Panko crumbs; and, since I have to cook the pork chops in batches (as I must make more than 4!), I cook the pork first, and then cook and carmelize the onions. Yummy!
     
  4. Outstanding! Only change was I dredged the chops in flour before dipping in the egg. Helps to keep the breading from falling off during frying! Oh, and I did add a little lemon zest to the breadcrumbs. Served with lemon wedges. Thanks for sharing!
     
  5. I used "Golden Breadcrumbs" because that's what I had at home from when DH made Chicken Corden Bleu! :P And I used butter instead of margarine (didn't have margarine at home). Very quick and easy. I also added seasoned pepper and garlic powder to the chops and let it sit for a short while as I got the other parts of dinner ready. Really delicious and extremely easy! Will be making this one regularly! Thanks for a great recipe Kree!

  1. I would give this recipe more than five stars if I could. It was simply delicious and so easy to make. I used garlic salt in place of regular salt and lightly coated the chops in flour before dredging in the egg as some of the other reviewers had done so that the breading would stick better. Also, I used Italian bread crumbs because that's what I already had on hand. The only thing I will do differently next time is double the recipe because my family is already begging for more.

  3. Fast, easy and delicious. What more can you ask for? I also used seasoned croutons for the breadcrumbs, and butter instead of margarine. I made some fried potatoes to go with them, and served lemon slices with the schnitzel. YUMMY!
     
  4. Yum! I used Italian seasoned breadcrumbs (because that is what I had on hand) and lots of onions. I also used unsalted butter instead of margarine to brown the pork and sautee the onions. Hubby thought that dinner of Pork Schnitzel, buttered noodles and peas was great, and is anticipating the leftovers as sandwiches for lunch tomorrow.

I'm a real estate agent in the lovely city of Rochester, New York. That's not what I expected to do with my life. I got my bachelor's in psychology, my masters in literacy education, and I taught high school special education for two years. Then I discovered that helping people find the homes of their dreams was my real passion. I've been doing it for over two years now and still absolutely love my career. Other than that, I have a very spoiled Border Collie mix named Bear that I adopted from a local shelter in spring '08. He's gorgeous and fun and brings me great joy. Now if only I could find a man like that... LOL!
