Trader Joe's Hack: Falafel Schnitzel Recipe

Course Main Dish

Ingredients
  

  • 2 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts (preferably sliced thin)
  • 2 teaspoons mustard
  • 2 teaspoons water
  • 1 cup panko bread crumbs
  • 1 cup Trader Joe’s Falafel Mix
  • vegetable oil for frying

  • Combine bread crumbs and falafel mix in a shallow dish. Combine eggs, mustard and water in another shallow dish.
  • Dredge each chicken cutlet in the egg mixture and then bread crumb mixture.
  • Heat oil in a large saute pan over medium-high heat. You should coat the pan so that there is about 1/2 inch of oil for frying.

  • Remove chicken from oil and place on a wire rack. Sprinkle with a pinch of salt if desired.
