Ingredients

  • 4 pieces beef schnitzels
  • 200 grams gluten-free breadcrumbs
  • 50 grams cornstarch
  • 2 pieces large eggs
  • 3 tablespoons milk
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 200 milliliters vegetable oil
  • 1 slice lemon

Directions

Step 1

Place the beef schnitzels between two sheets of plastic wrap or parchment paper. Using a meat tenderizer or rolling pin, pound the beef until it is about 1/4 inch thick.

Step 2

Prepare three separate shallow dishes. In the first dish, mix the cornstarch with a little salt and pepper. In the second dish, whisk together the eggs and milk until well combined. In the third dish, combine the gluten-free breadcrumbs with salt, black pepper, paprika, and garlic powder.

Step 3

Dip each schnitzel first into the cornstarch, making sure to coat both sides lightly and shake off any excess. Next, dip the schnitzel into the egg mixture, allowing any excess to drip off. Finally, press the schnitzel into the breadcrumb mixture to coat thoroughly on both sides.

Step 4

Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. The oil should be enough to cover the bottom of the pan by about 1/4 inch.

Step 5

Once the oil is hot, carefully add the schnitzels to the pan. Cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and crispy. Make sure the internal temperature of the beef reaches at least 145°F (63°C).

Step 6

Remove the schnitzels from the pan and let them drain on a plate lined with paper towels to absorb any excess oil.

Step 7

Serve each gluten-free crumbed beef schnitzel with a wedge of lemon for squeezing over the top.
