Crispy chicken schnitzels are served with a sweet and crunchy fennel and apple salad in this easy dinner for four.

Chicken schnitzel with fennel, pistachio and apple salad

chicken breasts

medium free-range eggs, beaten

tbsp dijon mustard,

plain flour

breadcrumbs

tsp caraway seeds,

Olive oil

lemon

Sauerkraut to serve (we like Dawtona from Tesco)

For the salad

green eating apple

fennel bulb, thinly sliced (fronds reserved)

pistachio kernels, toasted and roughly chopped

fresh flatleaf parsley, roughly chopped

Finely grated zest and juice

Put a chicken breast between 2 sheets of compostable baking paper, then use a rolling pin to beat the chicken until it’s about 1.5cm thick all over. Repeat with the remaining chicken breasts.

Put the eggs in a shallow bowl and mix with the mustard. Put the flour and breadcrumbs in 2 separate shallow bowls or on 2 plates. Season the flour with salt and black pepper.

Dip the chicken breasts into the flour, shaking off any excess, then dip in the beaten egg, then finally coat well with the breadcrumbs. Sprinkle the caraway seeds over both sides, pressing to coat. Set the crumbed chicken breasts aside until ready to cook (see Make Ahead).

For the salad, finely slice the apple, then combine with all the remaining salad ingredients in a mixing bowl. Season with salt and pepper and toss again.

To cook the schnitzels, put a large non-stick frying pan over a medium heat, then pour in 1cm oil. When the oil is hot, fry 2 schnitzels for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden and cooked through. Squeeze lemon juice over, then set aside, loosely covered with foil. Repeat with the rest of the chicken schnitzels, using a little more oil if you need it.

Serve the chicken schnitzels with the salad, with dijon mustard and sauerkraut on the side.

This Apple Cranberry Walnut Salad features crisp apples, dried cranberries, feta cheese, and hearty walnuts to create the perfect Autumn-inspired salad. It is an easy and delicious side dish for any of your favorite meals!

Apple Cranberry Walnut Salad

salad ((I used a combination of arugula and baby spinach, any spring green mix will do))

red apple

green apple

walnuts (roughly chopped, (such as Diamond of California))

4-6 bacon strips (cooked and chopped (optional))

feta cheese

cranberries

apple juice

honey

black pepper

walnut halves

butter

sugar

cinnamon

Core and chop apples (thin slices or 1 inch chunks). Toss lettuce, apples, walnuts, feta, bacon (if using) and cranberries together in a large bowl.

Whisk together all dressing ingredients or combine in a jar and shake vigorously. Toss with salad immediately before serving. Enjoy!

Line a baking sheet with greased parchment or a nonstick baking mat. In a medium nonstick pan over medium heat, melt butter and sugar.

Once butter is melted, stir in the walnuts, salt, and cinnamon. Continue to stir til walnuts are well coated. Remove from heat and immediately spread walnuts out in a single layer on prepared baking sheet. Allow to cool 5-10 minutes.

Candied Walnuts

This easy apple salad recipe is a delight, starring crisp fruit, greens, cheese crumbles, and a zingy maple vinaigrette.

Crisp Apple Salad

tart apple (like Pink Lady)

greens

pecans pecans

goat cheese or feta cheese crumbles

pomegranate seeds cranberries

thyme,

tablespoons maple syrup

tablespoons apple cider or white wine vinegar

tablespoon Dijon mustard

tablespoons olive oil

black pepper (optional)

If using, prepare the candied pecans in advance (or use purchased).

Make the dressing: In a medium bowl, whisk the maple syrup, vinegar, Dijon mustard, salt, and black pepper. Whisk in the olive oil 1 tablespoon at a time until a creamy dressing forms. (If desired, make in advance and refrigerate up to 2 weeks; bring to room temperature prior to serving).

Place the greens on a large platter or individual plates. Top with apple slices, candied pecans, goat cheese or feta crumbles, and pomegranate seeds or dried cranberries. Top with about 6 tablespoons of the dressing (or more as desired) and serve immediately. (To make ahead, keep all components separate with fresh ingredients and dressing refrigerated. Toss the apples with lemon juice to prevent browning. Bring dressing to room temperature and add all ingredients together directly before serving.)

I loved this salad!! Served it at a small dinner party and everyone wanted the recipe.  Great job!

I’m making this salad for the 2nd time with the homemade candied pecans for a New Year’s Day Bubbly Brunch, because it was such a huge hit at my Christmas Eve get-together with my kids and grandkids! Thanks for such a delicious, easy to make, recipe!
