Ingredients
- 2 bone-in chicken breasts
- 3/4 cup flour
- 2 large eggs beaten
- 1 cup plain breadcrumbs
- Kosher salt, to taste
- Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
- 1/4 cup canola oil
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 (8-ounce) package sliced mushrooms
- 1 teaspoon chopped garlic
- 1 cup chicken broth
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1/3 cup sour cream
- 1 tablespoon chopped parsley, for garnish
Directions
Remove the chicken breasts from the bone. Slice each breast in half lengthwise. Put them between pieces of plastic wrap and pound them with a mallet or a small skillet until they are 1/4-inch thick.
Set up a breading station with three pie plates or shallow dishes. Put the flour in one and season it with a generous pinch of salt and pepper, the eggs beaten with 2 tablespoons of water in another, and the breadcrumbs in the third. Dredge the chicken pieces in the flour, then the egg wash, then the breadcrumbs. Set aside. In a large skillet over medium heat, add the oil. When the oil is hot, add the chicken in 1 layer and cook until it is golden brown and crispy, about 4 minutes per side. Drain on brown paper and keep warm while you make the sauce.
In another skillet over medium heat, add the butter. When it is melted, add mushrooms and season them with salt and pepper. Cook until they are browned, about 6 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for 30 seconds then add the stock and simmer for 4 minutes and reduce by one third. Add the Worcestershire sauce, turn the heat off, and let cool for a minute before stirring in the sour cream. Serve the Schnitzel with the sauce poured over the top, garnished with parsley.

Enjoyed the recipe very much. Easy to put together. I think the breading needs a little more seasoning....just a little bit bland. But the meat was very moist and tender. Even though I cooled the sauce first, the sour cream still curdled a little when I added it. I made it as directed this time, but next time will add some white wine to the sauce and reduce the amount of chicken stock.

Rave reviews from honey & 2 teenagers! We all agreed that we would drink the sauce! (As per reviews, I added marsala, didn't have sherry, to the sauce. Next time, I think I'd add one more clove of garlic, but it was soooo good. Whole dish was just delicious, and we are all talking about when to have it again!

So delicious! It was a big hit from my husband. He loved it. I too also used italian breadcrumbs and mixed it with panko breadcrumbs for added crunch. Love this dish, especially for weeknights. Simple, fast and extremely delicious!
