- Amazingly Tasty and Crispy Chicken Schnitzel
- Description
- Russ and I live near a German community and when I was growing up, I encountered German food fairly often. My favorite being Schnitzel. So, today, I share a recipe for Chicken Schnitzel with a side of German potato salad... just in time for Oktoberfest!
- Ingredients (Chicken)
- 2 large eggs
- 3 tablespoons honey
- 3 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 2-1/2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon crushed garlic
- 2 cups bread crumbs, or as needed
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
- Vegetable oil for frying
- 4 boneless chicken breast halves, pounded very thin
- 1 lemon, cut into wedges
- Directions (Chicken)
- Whisk eggs, honey, Dijon mustard, soy sauce, and garlic together in a bowl. Mix bread crumbs, salt, and pepper together in a shallow bowl. Heat 1/2 to 1 inch of vegetable oil in a heavy skillet to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). You can also use a deep fryer. Put chicken slices in the egg mixture and knead until fully coated. Press chicken in the bread crumbs until evenly coated. Working in batches, carefully place chicken in the hot oil using tongs and cook until no longer pink in the center and browned on the outside, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Drain on paper towels and serve with lemon wedges.
- Ingredients (Potato Salad)
- 3 cups diced peeled potatoes
- 4 slices bacon
- 1 small onion, diced
- 1/4 cup white vinegar
- 2 tablespoons water
- 3 tablespoons white sugar
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
- Directions (Potato Salad)
- Place the potatoes into a pot, and fill with enough water to cover. Bring to a boil, and cook for about 10 minutes, or until easily pierced with a fork. Drain, and set aside to cool. Place the bacon in a large deep skillet over medium-high heat. Fry until browned and crisp, turning as needed. Remove from the pan and set aside. Add onion to the bacon grease, and cook over medium heat until browned. Add the vinegar, water, sugar, salt and pepper to the pan. Bring to a boil, then add the potatoes and parsley. Crumble bacon and add half to the potato mixture. Heat through, then transfer to a serving dish. Garnish with the remaining crumbled bacon and serve warm.

- Slipknot No. 9 Reserve Iowa Whiskey
- Description
- Much-loved heavy metal band Slipknot has teamed up with Cedar Ridge Distillery to create Slipknot No.9 Whiskey. Blended by Slipknot's very own Shawn "Clown" Crahan, the whiskey features Iowa corn as well as a helping of rye, which brings a kick of spice to the fore. Both Slipknot and Cedar Ridge hail from Iowa and, judging by the whiskey they've made together, they seem like a fantastic fit. With that in mind, stick on Slipknot's Iowa album, pour yourself a glass and enjoy this four-year-old bourbon and rye whiskey blend.
