About this recipe

This is my new go-to chicken schnitzel burger recipe. A ridiculously easy recipe for the no-fuss lunch/dinner that you’ve always dreamed of. And what’s better than a crunchy schnitzel roll for tomorrow’s brunch? (maybe a hummus dinner roll).

Notes from Rouba

  • Schnitzels freeze well. Make it ahead of time and freeze.
  • Thaw schnitzels before frying.
  • Add cheddar cheese to your roll if you have it on hand and place it in a press-down toaster or in the oven for a few minutes.

 

 

Method

Step 1.

Slice each chicken breast fillet in half length-ways to form 8 pieces. Season chicken breasts with salt and pepper.

Beat the eggs in a shallow baking dish. Place the breadcrumbs in another shallow baking dish, adding more if necessary. Working with 1 piece of chicken at a time, dip into the egg mixture while turning to coat evenly, and carefully coat with breadcrumb.

Step 2.

Heat oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Add the chicken schnitzels and cook for 6-8 minutes or until golden and cooked through. Transfer to a wire rack or onto a plate lined with a paper towel.

Step 3.

Toasting the bread/rolls is optional. Fill or top bread/roll with chicken schnitzel, lettuce, tomato, avocado and gherkin. Drizzle with the sauce of your choice.

  1. Was so great. Loved the idea of gherkins (we always have dill pickles in the fridge). We put hommous on ( inspired by your other dinner roll. It was great – even if it seemed a bit odd mixing Eastern European with Middle East. Thanks for the ideas!

That’s me at the age of 32 with Merlin, who worked closely with Palestinian families. Together, we were so excited about the project. After that unforgettable visit with Auntie Suad, I was filled with excitement about the project. The women I met were inspiring, and together we had even come up with a name for the cookbook: Taste of Palestine. 🥰🇵🇸 It was a name that captured the heart of what we wanted to share—stories, recipes, and traditions tied to the land and its people.

But for many reasons, the project didn’t go ahead. At the time, I wasn’t prepared for the reality that not everyone would understand or support what I was doing. There were people who gossiped, joked, and made me question myself. Looking back now, I see that they were the minority, but their words had a way of making me doubt myself 🥺

if this happened now—I would not have let anything stop me. This was for a good cause, but I also believe that everything happens for a reason. The project was meant to be set aside, and I needed to focus on my boys, who were still young.
A couple of years later, we received the heartbreaking news of Auntie Suad’s passing 🥲🙏🏽It felt as though a part of the story had been left unfinished. A few weeks later, something arrived in the mail that would bring me to tears 😭 There’s more 🤗
