Prepare the Marinade
Combine eggs, water, flour, and spices in a large bowl. Beat well.
Then add the onion and garlic. Stir to combine.
Rather than just a list of ingredients, this is a
method of preparing and frying the perfect
soft-on-the-inside-crispy-on-the-outside
schnitzel. The flour in both the egg mixture
and the crumbs is the secret to that fine
crunch you’ll experience with each bite.

Combine eggs, water, flour, and spices in a large bowl. Beat well.
Then add the onion and garlic. Stir to combine.
Place the chicken cutlets into the bowl, making sure they’re fully drenched. Cover the bowl and place it in the refrigerator for
12–24 hours.
When ready to fry, sift together the crumb ingredients onto a flat plate. Coat the cutlets with the crumbs.
Heat oil in a frying pan and place the cutlets inside. Add some of the onion rings to the sizzling oil between the cutlets. This adds exceptional flavor to the schnitzel!
Once the pan is full and bubbling heavily, lower the heat for about seven minutes, or until chicken is very soft and easily pierced with
a fork. Then, turn up the heat again and fry over high heat for one to two minutes on each side.
Repeat until all pieces are fried. Keep removing fried onions and adding more onion rings to the oil throughout the frying process. The fried onions can either be discarded or used as a side dish garnish.
Notes:
I recommend using olive oil, as it gives depth of flavor to the schnitzel. You
need less oil when using olive oil for frying, and you also need to change the oil more frequently due to its lower smoking point. I usually change the oil when I’m halfway through.
