Jagerschnitzel translates as "Hunter's Cutlet" so venison and wild boar are perfect for this recipe.

Ingredients
2 lbs South Texas Antelope Cutlets or Wild Boar Cutlets
Kosher salt
1/2 cup flour
1/2 cup bread crumbs
1 egg
1/4 cup milk
3 Tbsp oil
2 cups mushroom sauce (See linked recipe)

Place cutlets between two sheets of wax paper and pound to about 1/8" thick with a meat mallet or rolling pin. Season both side of cutlet with salt.

Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. While oil is heating up, measure flour and bread crumbs onto separate plates or shallow bowls. Whisk together egg and milk in a bowl.

Cook small batches in assembly line fashion: Lightly coat cutlet in flour, shake off excess. Dip cutlet into egg mixture. Coat cutlet with bread crumbs, press crumbs to make them stick. Add cutlets to skillet. Cook about 3 minutes per side until golden brown. Keep cutlets in a warm oven (200° F) until all are cooked. Serve topped with mushroom sauce.
