Yes I do, but shortly. Chicken do not need too much, in acid it will start cooking. 30 minutes is maximum.

I prefer chicken version as well. Do you marinate the chicken in lemon juice Michale?

Well, original wiener schnitzel is from veal, pork is Czech version. I have to admit, I do not like original veal version at all. Chicken breast is lighter version.
Also, it is great to marinate meat for about 30 minutes in lemon juice.
Yes, when are schnizels done from pork, it is a great way to fry them in pork fat, (sádlo, schmaltz, lard). The taste is much better, they are crunchier, unfortunately calories and fat are high. But – once a while…

Yeah, Vlastimil says it. Unfortunately for healthy kitchen, fat is taste holder. I do myself “rizky” not often, but when I do them, I do use a pork fat to fry them.

There is a small modification used widely in my family. We prepare pork meat day ahead and smear each slice with garlic from both sides. Then we let them rest in the garlic over night.

It is the fat which makes the “rizek” tasty and enjoyable…..

You got me! You are right, the REAL rizek is made out of the real deal – pork!!! Although it is so much tougher than the chicken rizek…

I see you put the healthy chicken version.
The real Czech rizek is made with pork.
My grandmother always used porkchops.
And they were always really good.:)
Oh.. now I miss my grandmothers cooking
