Ingredients

2 (3-ounce) pork cutlets, pounded thin
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
All-purpose flour, for dredging
2 eggs, beaten
Breadcrumbs, for dredging
2 tablespoons clarified butter
3 slices smoked bacon, roughly chopped
1/2 onion, diced
1 tablespoon dijon mustard
1 tablespoon capers, drained
Butter
3/4 pounds chanterelle mushrooms, chopped if large
1/4 cup heavy cream

Directions

Pat cutlets dry. Season cutlets with salt and pepper, then dredge in flour, then egg, then breadcrumbs. In a large skillet, add clarified butter and saute cutlets on both sides until golden brown and crunchy. Drain on paper towels, keep warm.

In a separate skillet over high heat, cook the bacon and the onions until they both start to brown. Add mustard and capers. Add a small lump of butter to the mix and immediately add the chanterelles. As the mushrooms begin to absorb the butter, add just enough cream to cover the bottom of the pan. Simmer sauce to reduce slightly. Add more mustard or capers as needed.

To serve, spoon sauce over browned schnitzels.

Heavy but Delish!
Rated: 4 stars out of 5

This is a tasty, wonderful dish although it is heavy. The sauce has great flavor but is quite rich. I might just put a little... on top next time or even put it on the side for people to add as much as they would like. Great flavors though! I will be making it again. I used baby bella mushrooms instead and combined a couple TBL of butter and olive oil in the pan instead of clarified. Worked great. Read more

Great Twist on Pork
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

This really livened up a pork dinner. I pounded out center cut chops and let them sit in buttermilk for an hour, I think... this helped them to be very moist. I also only used just 2 tablespoons of half and half and sliced cremini mushrooms from the grocery store to cut down on the richness and save time. It was still EXCELLENT. My husband said it was worth missing his wine tasting tonight :) Easy and delicious!Read more

Yummy
Rated: 4 stars out of 5

I saw this recipe and was pleased to see pretty good ratings for it, so I decided to give it a go. It was fairly easy to... make although I used baby bellas since I could not find chanterelles. The sauce is kicking. I would make this again and hope I could use chanterelles next time.Read more

Needed some tweaks, but good
Rated: 4 stars out of 5

I loved the actual schnitzel. The sauce was a little too rich. I added some milk. I think I'm going to try using some generic... mushrooms next time.Read more
