Instructions for Delightful Air fryer chicken schnitzel Recipe:
- Sandwich two pieces of cling wrap around four 180g chicken breast fillets. Pound out to a thickness of 2 cm with a rolling pin or mallet. Continue with the leftover chicken.
- In a medium bowl, mix 20g (1/4 cup) finely grated parmesan cheese and 100g (2 cups) panko breadcrumbs. In a separate medium dish, whisk together 1 egg, lightly whisked, and 2 tablespoons milk. After seasoning, spread out 50g (1/3 cup) of plain flour on a dish.
- Shake off any extra flour after dipping the chicken in it. Press down forcefully to ensure that the breadcrumb mixture coats the egg. Move to a serving tray. After covering, refrigerate for fifteen minutes.
- For three minutes, preheat the air fryer to 200°C. Apply some olive oil spray to the chicken. Place half of the chicken in the air fryer’s basket in a single layer. A 12-minute timer should be set. Cook until chicken is brown and well done, rotating it halfway through. To keep warm, transfer to a platter and cover with foil. Continue with the leftover chicken.
- To serve, arrange lemon slices with the schnitzel.
