Chopped chicken cutlets

The cutlets turn out tender and juicy, another option for the picky ones! Chopped meat is always juicier in cutlets than regular minced meat. I tried to speed up the grinding process using a blender - no, the taste changes! And it’s no coincidence that I use both dry and fresh spices, and both onions and green onions. All together gives an amazing result of balanced taste, tenderness and juiciness. Most of the time is spent on preparing the minced meat; the cutlets are fried quickly and eaten.

    STEP 3

    Wash the fillet, dry with paper towels and also cut into small cubes.

  4. STEP 4

    STEP 4

    Add 1 tsp to the meat. dry spices for meat /I use “Pripravych” for pork - ideal for any meat/, 1/2 tsp. dry garlic, and a little bit of dry herbs that you like / I have these: dill, parsley, cilantro and purple basil /.

  5. STEP 5

    STEP 5

    Next add fresh garlic.

  6. STEP 6

    STEP 6

    And also all the chopped onions. Pepper and salt to taste /2-3 pinches/. Mix everything thoroughly.

  7. STEP 7

    STEP 7

    Break 1 egg and add 1 tbsp. with a large pile of sour cream /I have 10%, but thick/. Mix.

  8. STEP 8

    STEP 8

    Add 4 tbsp. with a heap of semolina, mix everything very well.

  9. STEP 9

    STEP 9

    Cover the finished minced meat and put it in the refrigerator for 30 - 40 minutes, for the semolina to swell and combine all the flavors.

  10. STEP 10

    STEP 10

    After the time has passed, remove the minced meat, add finely chopped fresh herbs, stir and let stand while the pan heats up.

  11. STEP 11

    STEP 11

    In a well-heated frying pan / medium-medium heat / pour 5 tbsp. vegetable oil, let the oil heat up and fry 1/2 tsp. minced meat / so check for salt, if it’s not enough, add salt to the minced meat /, lay out the cutlets. You can use a spoon, but I prefer to form them with wet hands.

  12. STEP 12

    STEP 12

    Let the cutlets brown and turn over. They fry very quickly, add oil if necessary.

  13. STEP 13

    STEP 13

    Place the fried cutlets on a plate in piles, so the heat from the top ones cooks the bottom ones. In principle, they are already ready, but...

  14. STEP 14

    STEP 14

    They will become unusually tender if: - turn off the burner, put all the cutlets back into the frying pan in layers, pour them with a small amount of milk / about 50 ml. or a little less/.

  15. STEP 15

    STEP 15

    Cover loosely with a lid, turn on low heat, and let the milk evaporate. It's literally 3-5 minutes, don't leave! /You can add hot water or cream, but I like the result with milk better - it’s gentle - creamy flavor and low-fat cutlets./

  16. STEP 16

    STEP 16

    After the milk has evaporated, turn off the heat and let the cutlets stand under a loosely closed lid for 5-10 minutes so that all the juices separate and combine. /It’s better to remove from the burner, the heat of the frying pan is enough/. From this quantity of products you get 22 - 23 tender, aromatic cutlets. Bon appetit !
