Parmesan cheese will give the schnitzel a specific delicate taste and cornflakes (or bran flakes) will make it subtly crunchy.
Try this baked fitness chicken schnitzel with sweet potatoes this weekend, it's a wonderful and healthy recipe for the whole family.
Wash sweet potatoes, cut off the ends, and cut them into wheels.
Place them on a baking sheet lined with baking paper and drizzle with olive oil.
In one bowl, using a fork beat the eggs for breading.
In a second, larger bowl, mix finely crushed cornflakes with parmesan, salt, and pepper.
Cut chicken breasts into thinner cuts (you don't have to pound them).
Wrap each chicken cutlet in eggs and then cover it in the prepared mixture for breading.
Place the wrapped chicken slices on a baking sheet lined with baking paper. If they fit, then lay them next to the potatoes, if they don't fit, place them on the second baking sheet (you can bake them together or separately).
Bake sweet potatoes and chicken schnitzels for about 25 minutes at 180 degrees. Sweet potatoes must be soft and chicken breast schnitzels must be baked to a golden brown.
Serve the meal ideally with lettuce, tomatoes, or other favorite vegetable.
