Step 1

For the schnitzels, use a meat mallet or rolling pin to beat the chicken between 2 pieces of plastic wrap until flat. Mix the breadcrumbs with the parmesan, lemon zest and parsley, then season with freshly ground black pepper. In another bowl, whisk together the egg and milk. Dust the chicken with flour, then dip into the egg wash and coat in the breadcrumb mixture. Chill for 30 minutes to set.

Step 2

Meanwhile, for the coleslaw, mix the cabbage, carrot and red onion in a bowl with enough mayonnaise to bind. Set aside at room temperature for 20-30 minutes to soften.

Step 3

Heat 2cm oil in a frypan over medium heat and, in batches, cook the schnitzels for 4-5 minutes each side until golden. Drain on paper towel and keep warm.

Step 4

Toss the coleslaw with the parsley and currants, then pile onto plates with the schnitzels and serve with lemon wedges.
