Cutlets in the pan
This dish will appeal to lovers of oily and crispy meat. Based on ten servings, you will need a set of products:
- chicken breast - two pieces of medium size (about half a kilogram);
- chicken eggs - two or three;
- onions - two small heads;
- wheat flour - three tablespoons with a hill;
- mayonnaise - three tablespoons with a slide;
- spices - to your taste (a combination of pepper + salt + dill is very tasty);
- vegetable oil for toasting.
Cooking Stuffing
The recipe for chopped chicken cutlets with mayonnaise is simple and affordable. Rinse and dry the chicken fillet, cut into cubes. The thickness of the meat cubes should not exceed two centimeters - the uniformity and cooking time of your cutlets depends on this. Chop the onion very finely - the finer the onion, the juicier the meatballs from the pieces of chicken with mayonnaise. Mix onion with chicken, add spices and mayonnaise. Stir, gently pouring flour to prevent lumps. As soon as the desired consistency is obtained, we send the minced meat to the refrigerator for half an hour, so that the meat is saturated with onion juice and mayonnaise for softness. After time, put a frying pan with a thick bottom on the fire, heat vegetable oil on it to bubbles. Put the formed patties in boiling oil, fry each side for five minutes. It is better to put ready chopped chicken cutlets with mayonnaise on baking paper - so you will save them from excess oil. Call the family at the table!
Steamed cutlets
To cook steaks, you will need to slightly change the recipe. For steam chopped chicken breast cutlets with mayonnaise, mix finely chopped greens. So let's take:
- Chicken breast fillet - eight hundred grams (about three pieces).
- Chicken eggs - three pieces.
- Potato starch - four tablespoons.
- The bulb is large.
- Spices - to your taste.
- Mayonnaise, mixed with finely chopped dill and parsley, - six tablespoons.
Steaming Recipe
Finely chop the chicken meat into cubes, a size of a couple of centimeters, rub the onion on a coarse grater or grind it with a blender and mix in the meat. Mix mayonnaise with finely chopped herbs, add salt, pepper and mix in the minced meat. We put the minced meat for ten minutes in the cold. After the set time, we take the minced meat and add the remaining ingredients: starch and eggs. Gently stir and form cutlets. We put the chopped chicken cutlets with mayonnaise in a double boiler and cook for at least thirty minutes. After half an hour, diet, tender and delicious cutlets are ready. Children will appreciate them.
Cooking in the oven
Oven dishes are considered as healthy as steamed dishes due to the minimal use of vegetable oil. Hard cheese can be added to this recipe - this will diversify your dish. Inside, the cheese will be in harmony with tender chicken, and outside it will be nice to crunch.
Ingredients for cheese cutlets, chopped chicken fillet, with mayonnaise:
- Cheese (hard, Russian) - two hundred grams.

Cooking
Grind chicken fillet, onion and garlic with a blender. Add eggs, mayonnaise and cheese, mix gently. We put in the refrigerator for half an hour. After the allotted time, take the stuffing and add spices and flour. Mix and form cutlets. On a baking sheet, spread the baking paper, brush with vegetable oil and spread the chopped chicken cutlets with mayonnaise. We heat the oven to two hundred degrees and put the pan. Twenty minutes later, the crispy outside and tender inside the cutlet are ready.
In a slow cooker
A very interesting and rare way of cooking cutlets is in a slow cooker. Those who have not tried it - try it, it’s very convenient and minimally “dirty”. No splash of oil around the stove, no smell of burnt meat - a super cooking method. We offer a variety of chopped chicken cutlets with mushrooms mayonnaise. It goes well with chicken meat champignon. This mushroom is relatively safe even for baby food, is rich in protein and perfectly complements the taste of chicken meat. Ingredients for minced meat based on ten servings:
- Half a kilogram of chicken.
- Three hundred grams of champignons.
- A small onion.
- A quarter cup of mayonnaise.
- A couple of tablespoons of flour.
- A pair of tablespoons of semolina for boning.
- A bunch of fresh green dill.
- Salt and spices at your discretion.
Stage of creativity
To begin with, we’ll deal with the mushroom component. Rinse and cut the champignons, cut into cubes. Then cut the onions into cubes and send together with the mushrooms to a frying pan previously preheated with vegetable oil. Fry until golden and soft, turn off and leave to cool. We cut the breast fillet into cubes not exceeding the size of two centimeters, mix with frying. Add mayonnaise, green dill, spices and flour, knead thoroughly. Do not forget to try on salt. Chill the prepared meat in the refrigerator for half an hour. After the set time, we form small cutlets from the cooled minced meat, roll them in semolina. Grease the bottom of the multicooker with vegetable oil, lay out the workpieces, close the lid and put on the "Baking" mode. If the time is programmed on the multicooker, then we go about our business before the signal. If this function is not available, then set the time to thirty-five minutes, forget about cooking for this time.
