CHICKEN
SCHNITZEL WITH CREAM SAUCE
This is really tasty
and very filling. You could replace the chicken with pretty much
any other white meat - it works really well with turkey, which
works out quite cheap. If you wanted, you could also replace the
breadcrumbs with crushed up water biscuits for a crunchier coating.
Serves 4.
