Cutlets with pieces of chicken fillet with mayonnaise in a frying pan

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 1 hr 20 mins

1. STEP 1

   

   How to make cutlets from chicken fillet pieces in a frying pan? Very simple and fast! To begin, prepare the necessary ingredients according to the list. In addition to the specified spices, you can add your own to taste, for example, paprika, dry herbs, etc. But when using ready-made spice mixtures, keep in mind that they usually already contain salt and pepper and otherwise you risk oversalting and peppering the dish .

2. STEP 2

   

   Wash the chicken fillet, dry it, remove films and pieces of fat. Cut the meat into very small cubes. Instead of chicken fillet from the breast, you can use meat from the thigh - the cutlets will turn out fattier, juicier, but with breast they will be more dietary.

3. STEP 3

   

   Beat an egg into a bowl, add chicken, add mayonnaise and selected spices. I use this mixture for chicken, salt, pepper and a little paprika. Mix the mixture thoroughly until smooth. Leave to marinate for 20 minutes.

4. STEP 4

   

   Pour the sifted flour into the minced meat and mix. The mass will begin to thicken quite quickly, as the flour absorbs a lot of moisture.

5. STEP 5

   

   Depending on the quality of the flour, the moisture content of the mayonnaise and the size of the egg, the mass may remain a little liquid or, on the contrary, dense. Here, decide for yourself which consistency you like best. It turned out quite dense and I didn’t dilute it. But if you wish, you can add a little mayonnaise or milk to the minced meat to thin the mass.

6. STEP 6

   

   Heat vegetable oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Place the chicken mixture in hot oil using a tablespoon and form small cutlets. Fry the cutlets on one side for about 5-6 minutes until golden brown. Then turn the cutlets over and fry for about 6-8 minutes, covered, until cooked through. Focus on your stove.

7. STEP 7

   

   Transfer the finished cutlets to a plate and serve immediately. Boiled vegetables, cereals, pasta or fresh vegetable salad are suitable as a side dish. Bon appetit!

My son and I love to cook these cutlets with pieces of chicken fillet with mayonnaise in a frying pan. They turn out very juicy and are eaten in one moment. I didn’t even have time to take a good photo because both the eldest and the youngest grabbed and ate them very quickly. According to the recipe, we took a boneless thigh and added a little green onion for brightness. By the way, thank you very much to the author for the information about oil with a high smoke point. Very interesting, I didn’t even realize it. Very interesting)
