Wiener Schnitzel

Step by stepInstructions

1. Place each cutlet between two sheets of plastic wrap and pound with a mallet to 1/4-inch thickness. Season lightly with salt and pepper.
2. Set up three shallow dishes: flour, beaten eggs, and breadcrumbs. Dredge each cutlet in flour, shake off the excess, dip in the egg, then press gently into the breadcrumbs.
3. Heat the clarified butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat to 350°F. Fry the cutlets one or two at a time, 2-3 minutes per side, until deep golden and crisp.
4. Drain on paper towels and serve immediately with lemon wedges and lingonberry jam.
