Ingredients

• 1 lb Pork loin
• 1 lb Veal cutlets
• 8 pieces Wooden skewers
• 1 cup All-purpose flour
• 3 large Eggs
• 2 tbsp Milk
• 2 cups Breadcrumbs
• 1 tsp Garlic powder
• 1 tsp Paprika
• 1 tsp Salt
• 0.5 tsp Black pepper
• 0.5 cup Vegetable oil
• 0.5 cup Chicken stock

Directions

Step 1

Cut the pork loin and veal cutlets into 1-inch cubes. Thread one cube of pork and one cube of veal alternately onto each wooden skewer until you use all the meat.

Step 2

Set up a breading station with three dishes: one holding the flour, one holding the eggs beaten with the milk, and one holding the breadcrumbs mixed with garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper.

Step 3

Roll each skewer in flour until lightly coated, then dip into the egg mixture, and finally coat evenly with the seasoned breadcrumbs.

Step 4

In a large skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat. Fry each skewer until golden brown on all sides, about 3-4 minutes per side. Work in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding the pan.

Step 5

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

Step 6

Place the browned skewers in a baking dish or ovenproof pan. Pour chicken stock into the dish to prevent the skewers from drying out during baking.

Step 7

Cover the dish with foil and bake for 30 minutes. Remove the foil during the last 5 minutes of baking to crisp up the breadcrumbs further.

Step 8

Serve hot, garnished with fresh parsley if desired, alongside mashed potatoes or a side of your choice.
