Schnitzel, German for cutlet, provides the base for a hearty winter meal. Ingredients:
4 ounces medium egg noodles |
1/4 cup reduced-fat sour cream |
4 teaspoons canola oil, divided |
6 cups shredded cabbage |
1 cup thinly sliced onion |
1 teaspoon sugar |
1 teaspoon salt, divided |
1/4 teaspoon black pepper, divided |
1/3 cup fat-free, less-sodium chicken broth |
1 (1-pound) pork tenderloin, trimmed |
1/4 cup all-purpose flour |
3 large egg whites, lightly beaten |
3/4 cup dry breadcrumbs |
cooking spray |
lemon wedges (optional) |
chopped fresh parsley (optional) |
Directions:
1. Cook noodles according to package directions, omitting salt and fat. Drain. Combine noodles and sour cream in a large bowl, tossing well to coat.
2. Heat 1 teaspoon oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add cabbage, onion, sugar, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/8 teaspoon pepper to pan; cook 6 minutes or until cabbage is wilted, stirring occasionally. Add broth; cook 6 minutes or until cabbage is lightly browned. Stir cabbage mixture into noodle mixture. Wipe pan clean with a paper towel.
3. Cut pork crosswise into 12 (1-inch-thick) pieces. Place each piece between 2 sheets of heavy-duty plastic wrap; pound to 1/4-inch thickness using a meat mallet or small heavy skillet. Sprinkle pork evenly with remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt and remaining 1/8 teaspoon pepper. Place flour in a shallow dish. Place egg whites in a shallow dish. Place breadcrumbs in a shallow dish. Dredge 1 pork cutlet in flour. Dip in egg whites; dredge in breadcrumbs. Repeat with remaining pork, flour, egg whites, and breadcrumbs.
4. Heat 1 teaspoon oil in large nonstick skillet coated with cooking spray over medium heat; add 4 pieces pork to pan. Cook 3 minutes on each side or until pork is lightly browned and done. Remove pork from pan. Repeat procedure twice with remaining 2 teaspoons oil and pork. Serve with cabbage mixture, lemon wedges, and parsley, if desired.
