Chicken is a dietary type of meat. It is a source of minerals, vitamins and proteins that are easily absorbed by the body. The meat of chicken breasts is considered very useful and is second only to fish in low cholesterol content. Tender cutlets can be made from breast fillets.
It is necessary
3 chicken breasts weighing about 700g; - 3 eggs; - 3-4 tablespoons of starch; - 1 large onion; - 4 tablespoons of sour cream; - salt
Instructions
Step 1
When cooking chicken breast cutlets, it is important to consider that the chicken fillet is dry in itself and you need to try to keep the dish juicy. Cut the chicken breasts into very fine cubes. For easy slicing, place the chicken fillet in the freezer for 20-25 minutes to freeze it slightly. It is cutting, and not passing the meat through a meat grinder, that will allow it to remain tender and juicy.
Step 2
Chop the onion finely. Alternatively, you can fry it in vegetable or butter, and after cooling down, add it to the meat. The taste of the cutlets will be more interesting, but the cooking time will slightly increase.
Step 3
Place the chopped chicken, chopped onions, eggs, peppers, starch, salt and sour cream in a suitable dish. Some cooks recommend adding a small piece of butter to the center of each cutlet to add more juiciness and eliminate dryness instead of sour cream just before frying.
Step 4
Mix everything thoroughly. In terms of consistency, minced meat should resemble pancake dough or chicken fillet pieces in batter. The most important thing here is that the starch is evenly distributed throughout the mass, without forming lumps.
Step 5
Leave the minced meat for 20-30 minutes. Then heat the vegetable oil or a mixture of butter and vegetable oil in a skillet. When the oil is hot, start spreading the minced meat into the pan with a tablespoon, spreading evenly over each serving. To make the patties larger, shape each of two to three tablespoons of minced meat.
Step 6
Fry the patties over medium heat until tender. Fry for 10 minutes on each side, turning them over with a wooden spatula. Serve the chicken cutlets with any side dish.
