Cutlets from chicken: fast and tasty

You can cook chicken in different ways: bake it in the oven, cook a hearty broth, fry pieces, but today we will make chicken cutlets according to two recipes.

Homemade chicken cutlets

In order to cook chicken cutlets, you need to take the following ingredients:

• one kilogram of chicken meat;
• two middle heads of onions;
• one raw potato;
• one chicken egg;
• four pieces of white bread, best of all stale;
• one glass of milk;
• pepper and salt to taste;
• for frying vegetable oil.

To begin with we will be engaged in bread: peel it is necessary to cut off, and a crumb to break on some parts, to combine in a bowl and to fill in with milk.

Mincemeat for cutlets will be prepared independently: It takes a little time, but you will be sure that there is nothing superfluous in it. Chicken meat cut into medium pieces and scroll through the meat grinder. The same is done with bread, after slightly squeezing it from the milk.

Onions can be scrolled in a meat grinder with meat, or you can grate on a large grater or chop slightly. Potatoes three on a grater.

Add to the raw chicken raw egg, chopped onions and potatoes, salt, pepper to taste and thoroughly mix the mass.

Now we form chicken cutlets: from the bowl, scoop a small amount of minced meat and throw it from one palm to the other, the more times this is done, the more tender and airy the cutlets will turn out. At the end, we give them an oblong shape, lay out on a cutting board covered with food film, and send it to the refrigerator for about an hour.

We will fry the cutlets in vegetable oil. First, on a strong fire, fry the cutlets on both sides to form a crust, then reduce the flame and for another ten minutes bring them to readiness. Ready cutlets from chicken should be folded into a saucepan, wrapped and left in a half-hour warm, so the dish will become especially tender and fragrant.

How to cook chicken cutlets without using a meat grinder? To do this the following recipe will help.

Prepare such cutlets very simply.

Ingredients:

• three hundred grams of chicken fillet;
• one small head of onions;
• one chicken egg;
• one glass of kefir;
• four spoonfuls of wheat flour;
• salt and pepper;
• a little vegetable oil for frying.

Chicken fillet should be cut into small cubes,approximately 1 * 1 centimeter. To make this easier, you can pre-slice the meat lightly in the freezer. Now add the chopped fillets in a bowl, pour kefir and send to the fridge to marinate, at least for half an hour.

The onion should be finely chopped and lightly put in a frying pan with vegetable oil.

But you can do without a bow, if you have very fastidious family members.

Now take out a bowl of chicken fromrefrigerator, add there onion and egg, salt, pepper to taste, pour in flour and mix well. The mass of the consistency will look like a dough for pancakes, so that we will fry the cutlets, like pancakes. If the cutlets roll up during the inverting, then add a little more flour to the mass.

A good side dish for chopped cutlets will be mashed potatoes or pasta. Bon Appetit!
