Description

This is a delicious, easy twist on a chicken schnitzel, using your favourite potato chips! It’s super crispy and a real treat to the taste buds!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1x 175g bag of potato chips, (we used Kettle Sweet Chilli and Sour Cream chips).
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 tsp water
  • 2 chicken breast fillets (approx 500g)
  • 4 tbs olive oil for frying

Instructions

  1. Place potato chips in a large zip lock bag, remove all the air, then pound the chips with a rolling pin until nice and small. Place into a large bowl and set aside.
  2. Crack two eggs into a medium-sized bowl, add water and whisk until incorporated. Set aside.
  3. Place the chicken breasts on a chopping board and slice them in half horizontally, to make two thin schnitzels.
  4. Pound them until they’re an even thickness with a meat tenderiser.  
  5. Coat the chicken in a thin layer of egg wash, then into the coating, pressing down firmly. 
  6. Add oil to a frypan and over medium-high heat cook schnitzels on one side, then flip over and cook the other side until cooked through.
  7. Drain on a paper towel before serving.

Notes

  • Repeat with another layer of egg wash and chip coating if you have more on hand. This will make it evenly coated and even crispier. This is not necessary however if you don’t have more on hand, it will still be delish!
