Description

Our hand crumbed chicken schnitzel is made from hormone and chemical free chicken breast, thinly sliced and coated in a light, egg-free breadcrumb that fries up golden and crunchy every time. Each schnitzel is crumbed by hand in-store, so the coating stays delicate rather than heavy or doughy.

These schnitzels are built for speed and versatility. Pan-fry one for a quick midweek dinner, pop a few in the oven for the family, or slice them warm over a crisp salad. The crumb is seasoned simply, which means it pairs just as well with a squeeze of lemon as it does with a rich mushroom gravy.

Because the chicken breast is lean and the crumb is applied with a light touch, the meat stays juicy while the outside turns crisp. Kids love them, and adults appreciate how little effort they take to get on the table.

Cooking Tips

Flip once only — moving the schnitzel too much can disturb the crumb
To oven-bake, drizzle or spray both sides lightly with oil and cook on a wire rack for even airflow
Rest for a minute after cooking so the juices settle before slicing
Pair with lemon wedges, a crisp slaw, or a simple green salad for a balanced plate
For a schnitzel parma, top with passata, fresh mozzarella, and grill until bubbling

Butcher's Tip: Let the schnitzel come to room temperature for 10 minutes before cooking. Cold meat hitting a hot pan can seize up, which leads to uneven cooking and a less tender result.

Bonus Tip: After frying, deglaze the pan with a splash of white wine or chicken stock and whisk in a knob of butter for an instant pan sauce that turns a simple schnitzel into something special.
