A pub favorite in the comfort of your own home! Deliciously crispy chicken schnitzels with a rich mushroom gravy…perfect!


Ingredients (serves 4)

  • 4 Chicken breast fillets, Halved
  • 2 Eggs, beaten
  • 2 1/2 cups Breadcrumbs
  • 2 TBS Butter
  • 4 Spring onions, chopped
  • 1 clove Garlic, minced
  • 400g Fresh mushrooms, sliced
  • 4 TBS Butter
  • 4 TBS Plain flour
  • 450ml Beef stock
  • 2 TBS Balsamic vinegar (to taste)
  • 1/2 tsp Sugar
  • 1/4 tsp Dried thyme
  • 1/4 tsp Black pepper
  • Salt to taste
  • Olive oil

Method

  1. Start by placing the halved fillets between 2 sheets of glad wrap and lightly pound with a rolling pin (or the likes) to flatten out until an even thickness
  2. Dredge each schnitzel in egg and then bread crumb, making sure to press on to coat evenly. Set aside on a baking tray
  3. Heat some oil over a medium heat, then cook the schnitzels in batches until the are all cooked through and nice and golden. Place onto a clean baking tray and place into oven to keep warm while making the gravy
  4. To make the gravy: Melt 2 TBS butter in a pan over medium-high heat and fry the onions until soft. Add the garlic and cook another minute.
  5. Add the mushrooms and cook 5-7 minutes or until golden and the liquid from the mushrooms has evaporated.
  6. Add the remaining butter and melt. Add the flour, stir to combine and cook for about 2 minutes, stirring continually.
  7. Add the beef broth, vinegar, thyme, sugar, salt and pepper. Whisk continually until the gravy is thickened
  8. Cover and simmer on low, stirring occasionally, for 5-10 minutes. Add salt and pepper to taste

Notes

If you want to make this gravy into a creamy version, just add a few TBS heavy cream at the last step!

  • Oh yes please. I would be very happy with this

  • Will need to try this as I’ve only found one mushroom sauce I’ve ever liked and now I can’t where I put the recipe so will need to try this one. Thank you.

  • My husband would have loved this. I used to make him a mushroom gravy but it was very basic. I’d peel the mushrooms and slice them. Next I’d heat 2 tbsp butter and once melted and sizzling I’d add the mushrooms until soft. Next I’d add in 1/4 to 1/2 cup of cream and stir until just beginning to thicken. I then poured it over the meat (usually steak for him).

  • Love a good mushroom sauce but definitely prefer mine creamy. My hubby would die for meals like this, so they’re a common dish in our home.

  • Ooh, yes this looks so yummy. I love mushies but tend to only have them on steak. Hadn’t considered this.
