Oven Baked Schnitzel Burgers

Crispy oven baked schnitzel makes a perfect sandwich!

Yes, I am posting yet another schnitzel recipe on the blog. We have schnitzel pretty often and I definitely like to switch it up each time we have it. It definitely hasn't gotten old for us, but it's still nice to have something just a little different. This recipe for schnitzel is baked and that did make me a little weary. However, the schnitzel comes out crispy and super tasty. I love the addition of paprika to this recipe. I would say it's a pretty authentic addition because my German sister-in-law puts paprika on everything or at least it always seems that way! :) The kids, of course, loved this sandwich, and we will have to do more toppings next time. There was no arugula or cucumber when I was at the store to get ingredients, so I ended up doing them pretty plainly. I do want to try with cucumber and tomato badly though!

What you need:

• 8 boneless pork chops
• Salt and pepper to taste
• 2 eggs, lightly beaten in a shallow bowl
• 2/3 cup dry breadcrumbs
• 1/3 cup shredded Parmesan cheese
• 1/3 cup olive oil
• 1 tsp. paprika 
• 4 hamburger buns
• 4 small cheese slices
• Ketchup
• Optional toppings: sliced tomato, sliced cucumber, red onion, arugula or other leafy green

Directions:

1. Pat pork dry and flatten each to 1/2 inch or less thickness. Season each with salt and pepper.
2. In a shallow bowl, mix together breadcrumbs and Parmesan.
3. Mix olive oil and paprika in a small bowl.
4. Line a baking sheet with foil and lightly brush with oil.
5. Dredge pork through beaten eggs then breadcrumbs. Place on baking sheet and lightly brush with oil. It's okay if you have leftover oil.
6. Bake in a preheated 430 degree oven for about 10 minutes. Flip and bake for another 10 minutes.
7. Top each hamburger bun with pork, cheese, and ketchup, plus any additional toppings you desire. Serve immediately.

Recipe from Where Is My Spoon

I made Jaegarschnitzel and posted it a while ago. I loved the bacon with the mushroom sauce. I saw this fancy version of Pork Schnitzel Sandwiches from The Avid Appetite that has pickled shallots and a spicy honey mustard.
