Essential Ingredients
Here’s what you’ll need to make this delicious dish:
Boneless Pork Chops: Choose thick cuts to ensure juiciness; about 1-inch thick works best for frying.
Flour: All-purpose flour helps create a crispy coating; don’t skip this step!
Eggs: Lightly beaten eggs provide the perfect adhesive for the breadcrumbs.
Breadcrumbs: Use panko for an extra crunch or regular breadcrumbs for a soft texture.
Mushrooms: Fresh button or cremini mushrooms add depth; slice them thinly for even cooking.
Heavy Cream: This gives the sauce its luxurious texture; don’t skimp on the creaminess.
Onion: Finely chopped onion enhances the flavor base of your sauce.
Garlic: Fresh minced garlic adds an aromatic kick; use more if you love garlic like I do!
Butter and Oil: A mix of both ensures perfect frying and flavor balance.
Parsley: Fresh parsley brightens up the dish with color and freshness as a garnish.

Let’s Make it together
Preparing the Schnitzel: Start by setting up your breading station: place flour in one bowl, beat eggs in another, and put breadcrumbs in a third. Season each component generously with salt and pepper. Dredge each pork chop in flour, dip into eggs, then coat well with breadcrumbs until fully covered.
Frying Time!: Heat equal parts butter and oil in a large skillet over medium heat until shimmering. Carefully add the breaded schnitzels one at a time without crowding the pan. Fry each side until golden brown, about 4-5 minutes per side. Transfer to paper towels to drain excess oil.
Sautéing Mushrooms and Onions: In the same skillet, add more butter if needed. Toss in the finely chopped onions first, cooking until translucent and fragrant—about 3 minutes—then add sliced mushrooms. Sauté until mushrooms are tender and have released their moisture.
Creating the Creamy Sauce: Lower heat slightly before pouring in heavy cream. Stir gently while scraping any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Let simmer until slightly thickened—around 5 minutes—seasoning with salt and pepper to taste.
Combining Everything Together: Reintroduce your crispy schnitzels back into the skillet, spooning that luxurious mushroom sauce over them. Allow everything to mingle on low heat for another minute or two before serving.
Now plate it up! Garnish with freshly chopped parsley for that pop of color and freshness.
Enjoy your Rahmschnitzel Creamy Mushroom Schnitzel hot off the stove! Your family will thank you!
