Al's Chicken Schnitzel Recipe
Recipe
Ingredients
1 kg chicken breasts
4 large eggs
2 cup flour
2 cup bread crumbs(krummies etc)
Recipe
Preparation
All MEASUREMENTS and CURRENCY mentioned below in in METRIC and
Australian currency. In 1 kg you usually get 3 breasts so cut them in
half as described below and 2 halfs usually make a filling meal.Costs
about $10 to serve a family since adult can have 2 halfs with mashed
potato and mini carrots etc and children can have 1. This is my first
Recipe so here goes.
Cut Chicken Breasts down the middle into 2 parts. Use Spiked Mallet
to beat chicken till its a mit thinner so it cooks better.Also trim
any skin or get skinless breasts to reduce amount of calories.
Get 3 plates.On the first plate sift flour on to plate. On second
plate,beat eggs and pour onto a deep plate. On third put the bread
crumbs on it.
Dip or cover breasts in flour.Shake off excess.Coat breast with egg
either by brushing on or dipping on plate.Then cover in bread crumbs
and put on plate.
On this is done you are ready to cook them.Now I usually cook mine so
that the bread crumbs brown but dont get burnt so the schnitzel is
very soft.Since I'm not an experienced cook but have to do the
cooking for the family (Im 15) I dont know if Im undercooking them or
what but they taste best that way.Just cook them and when the look
cooked cut in half and if the meat is white(like chicken sould look
not the colour of an uncooked fillet) they are cooked.I cook on
medium heat in a frypan with some oil. Serving Suggestions: In the
Colder months this meal is best served with Mashed potato and gravy
as well as carrots and any other vegetables you like.
In the Warm months my very favourite is a Schnitzel Burger. I put the
lettuce on the bottom,Beetroot next,then the scnitzel,then a thin
pineapple ring,and mayo.Excellent in summer months.2 of these make a
filling and tasty meal.
Well there you go.And comments and critisism would be appreciated.
CYA!

Food Tips of the Week
Dieting made easy
One useful tip is to drink plenty of water. From time to time at some stage in a hectic morning, you guess that you want a snack but in fact you might just need a refreshing glass of water or orange squash. The feelings of needing food and needing a drink are quite similar, but one of the two can lead to a broken diet and the other is ok.
Some reduced carbohydrate diet pointers:
* Make reduced carb breadcrumbs for deep fried foods.
While you can sometimes buy reduced carbohydrate bread crumbs, you can also make them by using low carbohydrate bread. All you have to do is toast the reduced carbohydrate bread in your oven on a sheet of cookie paper. When it is well browned, grind it in your blender. Keep in an airtight jar.
* Understand the food labels
Don't trust food packaging that proclaims 'low carb' - check the real nutritional information on the back of the tin or packet. A good number of are only a little reduced and in some instances still more than a competitors normal brand. In addition, beware of 'low sugar' and 'low fat' labels - 'low sugar' does not always mean 'low carb' - usually the carbs are just the same.
Carotenoid foods
(includes cilantro, turnip greens and winter squash)
These colorful healthy plants are rich in the carotenoids believed by nutritionalists be a key nutrient in minimizing the risk of cancer, particularly those cancers involving the lung, esophagus and stomach. Most are low in calories, so you should add them to your weight loss regime.
