Cook from frozen. Cook thoroughly before consumption.
Deep fryer:
Preheat oil to 160–180°C. Deep fry the frozen schnitzels for 4–6 minutes. Check the centre temperature before serving and continue cooking if required.
Air fryer:
Follow your appliance manufacturer’s instructions for cooking raw, frozen breaded chicken. Place the schnitzels in a single layer without overlapping, leaving space for air to circulate. Turn as directed by the appliance instructions and check the centre temperature before serving. Do not use settings intended only for reheating cooked chicken. If your appliance does not provide a suitable method for raw, frozen breaded chicken, use the deep-fryer method above.
Before serving:
Ensure the centre of the thickest part reaches at least 75°C, measured with a clean food thermometer. Do not rely on the colour of the crumb alone to determine whether the chicken is fully cooked.
Cooking times are a guide only and vary depending on the appliance, schnitzel thickness and quantity being cooked. Always check that each schnitzel is thoroughly cooked before serving.
