This is the best Wienerschnitzel I ever made. Once I didn't have any pork on hand so I used steak and it turned out great. Sometimes I add basil and oregano to the mix and use vegetable crackers crushed up instead of breadcrumbs.

We loved this recipe. It was easy and delicious. My 5 and 8 year olds loved them. I used Panko for bread crumbs because that's what I have in the house. I served these with Mean Chef's Spinach Saute With Brown Butter & Garlic # 110043 and some hot bread. Yummy. I've already repeated the recipe in the in the last couple of weeks. Thank you.
