If I cook a recipe at least once every two weeks, it is a turkey schnitzel recipe made only with flour and egg and without breadcrumbs.

Equipment

Ingredients

  • 1200 g turkey breast fillet or sliced
  • 4 pieces eggs free range, large size
  • 150 g wheat flour self raising
  • 2,5 tsp sea salt kosher
  • 1 tsp ground pepper freshly ground
  • 250 ml sunflower oil or other vegetable oil

Instructions

  • Season the breast slices with two teaspoons of sea salt and one teaspoon of freshly ground black pepper.
  • Break the eggs, season with half a teaspoon of sea salt and mix them well with the beater
  • Pass each slice of meat through the flour to cover it well on all sides, after which youI will gently shake off the excess flour.
  • Pass them through beaten eggs; the flour will make the eggs stick better to the meat. If you want the bread to be thicker, repeat the process and pass it through the flour and eggs.
  • Heat the oil in the frying pan at medium temperature and put the slices of meat to fry, taking care not to overload the pan.
  • Fry them for about 3-4 minutes on each side, at medium temperature, until they turn golden.
  • Take out the fried schnitzels in a bowl or container lined with a paper towel to absorb the excess oil and continue the process.
  • Serve hot and with side dishes such as mashed potatoes, rice or vegetable stew.

Notes

Leave the turkey slices without thinning them with a meat tenderizer because they will be much juicier and softer if we leave them like this.
Instead of sunflower oil, you can use any vegetable oil that is odourless.
