Our family lived in Europe for 11 years and this was by far our two sons' all-time favorite recipe. Typically in Germany and Austria, schnitzel is served with french fries and lemon wedges for squeezing onto the breaded cutlets. In Europe I used veal, but now that we are back home, I find that turkey slices are a fine substitute. —Sue Jurack, Mequon, Wisconsin
