Recipe Information
- Serves: 4
- Preparation: 15 minutes
- Cooking: 20 minutes
Ingredients
- 4 chicken breast schnitzels
- 1 cup passata
- 8 slices cheddar cheese
- ½ cup sliced dill pickles
- ¼ brown onion, thinly sliced
- ¼ cup burger sauce
- Fresh chives, finely chopped
Method
- Cook the chicken schnitzels until golden, crisp and cooked through using your preferred method, either pan frying or baking.
- Transfer the schnitzels to a lined baking tray and spoon the passata evenly over each one.
- Scatter over the sliced onion followed by the pickles.
- Top each schnitzel with cheddar cheese, ensuring the toppings are evenly covered.
- Place under a hot grill until the cheese has melted, bubbled and lightly browned.
- Finish with a generous drizzle of burger sauce and freshly chopped chives before serving immediately.
How to Serve
Serve with hot chips, a crisp garden salad or creamy coleslaw. Add extra pickles and burger sauce on the side for the full cheeseburger experience.
Butcher's Tip
Cook the schnitzels until they're beautifully crisp before adding the toppings. Starting with a crunchy schnitzel helps it stay crisp underneath the passata and melted cheese.
