Wiener Schnitzel is a traditional Austrian dish consisting of a breaded and fried veal cutlet. It’s one of Austria’s most famous culinary specialties and is typically made with thin slices of veal that are seasoned, coated in flour, dipped in beaten eggs, and then breaded with fine breadcrumbs before being fried to a golden crisp in butter or oil.

Traditionally served with a slice of lemon and sides like potato salad, cucumber salad, or lingonberry sauce, Wiener Schnitzel is known for its crispy exterior and tender, juicy meat inside. The dish’s name, “Wiener,” refers to Vienna, the capital of Austria, while “Schnitzel” means a breaded and fried cutlet.
