A Heaping Scoop: Schnitzel Advice
In a Nutshell:

One of our favorite suppers in our house. Just add rice to the bottom of a pan, then chicken on top, sprinkle with onion soup mix, drizzle olive oil (optional), and add water according to how much rice you use. Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 112 hours covered and 12 hour uncovered.

Flour helps egg stick to the chicken, which in turn prevents the crumbs from falling off. Another tip that may sound interesting is to put a few slices of carrots into the oil. I honestly don’t know how or why this works, but it’s something my mother-in-law does to prevent the oil from burning any extra pieces.
