Air Fryer Pork Schnitzel Recipe

Recipe By Slurrp

Air fryer pork schnitzel is a healthier and easier version of the classic breaded and fried pork cutlet. The pork is coated in a crispy breadcrumb mixture and then cooked in an air fryer, resulting in a golden and crunchy exterior with a tender and juicy interior. This dish is quick to make and requires minimal oil, making it a healthier alternative to traditional deep-fried schnitzel. Serve it with lemon wedges and your favorite side dishes for a delicious meal.
