In this post I show you my variation of the Schnizza recipe. Excuse me? Schnizza? Now the chef has completely lost it. Inspired by a TV report from Puls4, an Austrian TV station, I take up the somewhat crazy idea and try to tone down the culinary nosedive.

Allegedly, in a restaurant in Australia, a schnitzel topped with pizza was found on a menu. In Vienna, the well-known Italian restaurateur Luigi Barbaro was allowed to make his pizza oven available for testing the questionable pizza variant. Interestingly, the guests didn’t find the new creation all that bad.

After a bit of thought, I came up with the Schnitzel pizza. Cheese and ham in the schnitzel we know from the popular Cordon Bleu. Tomatoes are often served with the schnitzel in the form of ketchup (I prefer cranberries). Eckart Witzigmann likes to combine anchovies, capers and brown butter with the schnitzel. To be honest, all of these variations are not that far removed from the pizza-style schnitzel au gratin.

Find below the invitation and suggestion for a crazy and delicious baked crumbs shred. Wish you good luck and bon appétit!
