🍴 Pork Schnitzel with Dijon Gravy 🍴

🗣️ Savor the Crisp: A Perfect Weeknight Delight for Busy Food Lovers!

🍽️ Ingredients 🍽️
- 🍋 Lemon wedges for serving
- 🥚 2 large eggs
- 🧈 2 tbsp butter
- 🥩 1 lb pork loin or pork chops, pounded thin
- 🥣 1 cup all-purpose flour (for the schnitzel)
- 🧂 Salt and pepper to taste
- 🍞 1 cup breadcrumbs, preferably Panko
- 🥄 Oil for frying (vegetable or canola)
- 🥣 1 cup chicken broth or stock
- 🧂 2 tbsp Dijon mustard
- 🥣 2 tbsp all-purpose flour (for the gravy)

🧑‍🍳 Directions 🧑‍🍳
1. Set up three shallow dishes for the breading station: one with 1 cup flour, one with beaten eggs, and one with breadcrumbs mixed with salt and pepper.
2. Coat each pork piece first in flour, then dip in egg, and lastly coat in breadcrumbs, pressing gently to adhere. Set aside on a plate.
3. In a large skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Fry the schnitzels until golden brown and cooked through, about 3-4 minutes per side. Transfer to paper towels to drain excess oil.
4. In the same skillet, reduce heat to medium and melt butter. Sprinkle in 2 tbsp flour and whisk for about 1 minute until lightly browned.
5. Gradually whisk in chicken broth, then stir in Dijon mustard. Season with salt and pepper. Let it simmer until the gravy thickens, about 3-5 minutes.
6. Serve the schnitzels drizzled with the warm Dijon gravy and garnished with lemon wedges.
