Pork schnitzel with creamy mushroom sauce

If you take a look through the recipe archives on Nusde, you will find an abundance of pork recipes. These tend to be mostly slow-cooked LovePork hosted an event at L’Atelier de Chefs with Olympic swimmer, Rebecca Adlington, demonstrating a one of her favourite recipes for sticky pork medallions. We then got stuck in and recreated the recipe ourselves and I must say it was delicious and ready to eat in mere minutes.

Thankfully my notoriously picky kids were totally onboard with this when I got round to making the recipe at home. And so I was inspired to create something new for them, pork schnitzel with creamy mushroom sauce. Schnitzel was one of my absolute favourite meals as a kid – my mom still makes it whenever we visit.

The trick to tender and juicy pork medallions is not to overcook them. Simply place the medallions between cling film and flatten them slightly with a rolling pin so that they cook evenly. I decided to cover mine with breadcrumbs, Parmesan and just a bit of lemon zest and I must say they were just so totally YUM 🙂

As for the mushroom sauce, I could eat that with a spoon straight from the pot, it’s that addictive. Serve with mash or boiled new potatoes and some broccoli spears and make sure to thank me later. Find more quick and healthy pork medallion recipes on
