Tremendous crunchy grilled rooster schnitzel
I at all times have a bag of shoestring fries in my freezer. It’s true they’re much less wholesome, and doubtless much less tasty, than the selfmade selection, which I additionally make; however there are occasions, and weeknights, when dumping a load of pre-prepared chips onto an oven tray or into the air fryer is all it takes to create a meal.
If you do not have an air fryer it is going to be difficult to prepare dinner chips similtaneously the schnitzel. In case you really feel prefer it’s going to be a trouble, go the sandwich route, or by all means prepare dinner some boiled potatoes or rice on the stovetop. Actually absolutely anything will go together with this straightforward and engaging schnitzel. Simply do your self a favour and hold it easy.
