For anyone unfamiliar with schnitzel, they're made by pounding boneless pork chops very thin, breading them in flour, egg and breadcrumbs and frying.
Recipe Summary Slow Cooker Pork Cacciatore
A wonderful Italian neighbor showed me how to make this recipe after I commented on how good it made the neighborhood smell when she had her windows open when she made it. This American-Italian term refers to food prepared 'hunter-style,' with mushrooms, onions, tomatoes, various herbs, and sometimes wine. I found adding cheese gave it something special, it also made it mine.Ingredients | Pork Schnitzel With Mushroom Sauce
