Recipe View Drain and Serve: Remove the schnitzel from the skillet and place it on a wire rack or paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil. Serve immediately with lemon wedges, a side salad, and your favorite accompaniments.

For extra crispy schnitzel, use day-old bread for the breadcrumbs.
Do not overcrowd the pan when frying the schnitzel, as this will lower the oil temperature and result in soggy schnitzel.
Serve immediately for the best texture and flavor.
