Pork Schnitzel Sandwich

This is from last week, but I forgot to post it! I was still healing from my wisdom teeth but challenged myself to eat it. The sandwich was huge and I had to cut it as well as smoosh it down, but mmm it was so good. My dad made the actually schnitzle while I made the sauce.

For the pork: pound out boneless pork chops so they are very thin. Sprinkle some salt, pepper and oregano on it. Dip in flour. Dip in egg. Dip in breadcrumbs. Heat canola over medium heat. When hot, add in pounded out pork. Cook for a few minutes on each side. You want a nice golden brown outside.

You can put any marinara sauce on top. For ours, I simply chopped up the onions, mushrooms and garlic and fried them in some butter and olive oil until soft. Then I added a splash of red wine and some tomato passata (crushed tomatoes). I spiced it was salt, pepper, thyme and oregano.

On top of a nice fresh toasted kaiser bun, I put the pork schnitzel, monterey jack cheese (or whatever cheese), a spoon full of sauce and sprinkle some extra oregano and fresh parmesan.
