Cooking Steps

Roast potato wedges
1
  • Before starting, preheat the oven to 450°F.
  • Wash and dry all produce.
  • Remove any brown spots from potatoes and cut into 1/2-inch wedges.
  • To a parchment-lined baking sheet, add potatoes and 1 tbsp oil. (NOTE: For 4 servings, use 2 baking sheets, with 1 tbsp oil per sheet.) Season with pepper and 1/2 tsp (1 tsp) garlic salt, then toss to coat. 
  • Roast in the middle of the oven for 25-28 min, flipping halfway through, until tender and golden. (NOTE: For 4 servings, roast in the top and middle of the oven, rotating sheets halfway through.)
Prep and make coleslaw dressing
2
  • Peel, core, then cut apple into 1/4-inch slices. Cut slices, into thin matchsticks. 
  • Zest, then juice lemon.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together half the maple syrup, 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) lemon juice, 1/2 tsp (1 tsp) sugar and 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil. Season with salt and pepper. 
  • Add apples, then toss to coat.
Prep and bread chicken
3
  • On a seperate cutting board, cover each chicken breast with plastic wrap. Using a mallet, rolling pin or heavy-bottomed pan, carefully pound each chicken breast until 1/2-inch thick. Season with salt and pepper.
  • To a shallow dish, add panko.
  • Coat chicken all over with spicy mayo.
  • Working with one chicken breast at a time, press both sides into panko to coat completely.
Sear and roast schnitzels
4
  • Heat a large non-stick pan over medium.
  • When hot, add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil and chicken. Cook for 2-3 min per side, until browned. (NOTE: If schnitzel browns too quickly, reduce heat to medium-low).
  • Transfer chicken to another parchment-lined baking sheet. Roast in the bottom of the oven for 12-14 min, until cooked through.**
Make aioli
5
  • Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, combine mayo, Dijon mustard, remaining maple syrup, remaining lemon juice, 1/4 tsp (1/2 tsp) garlic salt and 1/2 tsp (1 tsp) lemon zest.
Make salad and serve
6
  • To the bowl with apples and dressing, add coleslaw cabbage mix. Season with pepper and remaining garlic salt, then toss to coat. 
  • Divide schnitzel, colelsaw and wedges between plates.
  • Drizzle some aioli over top the schnitzel.
  • Serve remaining aioli alongside.

Review summary

Updated on Aug 2026
  • Flavour: The spicy mayo and maple Dijon aioli are standout elements, delivering a well-balanced sweet, savoury, and spicy flavour. The apple coleslaw is a favourite for many, though some found the dressing too sweet or too tangy.
  • Ease of prep: This meal takes noticeably longer than the estimated time, with several reviewers noting 45–60 minutes of total prep and cook time. Pounding the chicken and cutting the apple into matchsticks are the most time-consuming steps.
  • Suggestions: Add the remaining lemon juice to the aioli gradually rather than all at once, as several reviewers found it made the sauce too thin and watery. To boost spice, consider adding chili flakes or extra seasoning directly to the panko. Some reviewers suggest using garlic powder in place of garlic salt to better control saltiness.
  • Leftovers: The coleslaw tastes even better after resting, so consider assembling it first and letting it sit while you prepare the chicken.
