Chicken cutlets with cabbage: simple and delicious dishes!

In the culinary world, there are many recipes for cooking all kinds of cutlets, meatballs, meatballs, kebab and other minced meat dishes. And not only meat. But chicken cutlets with cabbage will rightfully take their place in the everyday and festive menu. Purely from chicken fillet they come out dry, but in combination with white (as an option - cauliflower or Peking) cabbage they turn out to be tasty, tender. And the taste of this ingredient is practically not felt, it only gives additional juiciness. And one more plus: chicken cutlets with cabbage are very simple to prepare and economical: we take both main ingredients in equal amounts, and as a result we get a lot of dishes. Well, try to cook?

Ingredients

We need: a pound of chicken fillet and the same amount of white cabbage, a couple of onions, garlic, a mixture of peppers and salt, breadcrumbs or flour (to roll), vegetable oil for frying.

Simple cooking!

1. We cut the chicken into larger pieces, after washing thoroughly under the tap. If we buy a frozen product, then it must first be thawed naturally (and not in hot water or in the microwave) - this will be tastier.
2. We wash the cabbage and cut into large strips. And cut the onion into a cube.
3. Next, we’ll deal with minced meat. We drive the filet and onion through a meat grinder (we will choose larger holes in the grate).
4. We also scroll the cabbage, but to another container, separate. If the leaves are too succulent, after processing in a meat grinder, the resulting mass should be slightly squeezed so that the final product does not fall apart in a frying pan during frying. Combine with minced meat.
5. Add a mixture of peppers with salt (to taste), finely chopped garlic, you can use a little Provence herbs - chicken cutlets with cabbage will be fragrant and fragrant. We thoroughly knead the whole mass. In principle, you can add flour and egg to the minced meat, but they will make the product tougher. In general, decide for yourself. In this case, we will do without them.
6. We thoroughly heat the pan with vegetable oil so that it almost boils.
7. At the same time, we form cutlets (the easiest and most convenient way to do this is with your hands moistened in cool water). Breaded workpieces (they should turn out rounded and small in size) in flour.
8. Fry them over low heat until a golden crust forms (5-7 minutes on each side). Bring to readiness (in the final, you can cover the dish with a lid and stew a little).
9. Another caveat: cabbage can be pre-boiled, but here we used raw, as it has an excellent set of vitamins that are necessary for the human body. And the leaves, especially those passed through the meat grinder, will be so well cooked, the main thing is to fry slowly, on low heat. Well, are we in a hurry?
10. So our delicious chicken cutlets with cabbage are ready! The recipe, as you see, is not difficult, and the ingredients can be purchased at any nearby store or market. To the table, products can be served with mashed potatoes, buckwheat porridge, vegetable salad.

Cooking

All components are thoroughly mixed until smooth (you can use a mixer or a blender). Heat the pan well, sprinkle with vegetable oil. From the mass with wet hands we form rounded chicken meatballs with cabbage and carrots. Roll in flour or breading, fry on both sides until golden brown.
