Ingredients

  • 250 grams chicken breast cubed
  • 1 potato mashed, medium-sized, boiled
  • 1 onion finely chopped, medium
  • 1 teaspoon ginger garlic paste
  • ¼ teaspoon turmeric powder
  • ½ teaspoon cumin powder roasted
  • ½ teaspoon red chili flakes
  • salt to taste
  • 1 green chili finely chopped
  • ½ cup cilantro finely chopped, fresh
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice fresh
  • ½ cup all-purpose flour 50/50
  • ½ cup cornflour 50/50
  • 1 egg beaten
  • ½ cup breadcrumbs
  • cooking oil for frying

Instructions

Cook the Chicken:
    Cup of Yum
  1. In a pan, add the chicken cubes, salt, turmeric powder, and ¼ cup water.
  2. Cook the chicken until cooked. Remove the chicken and reserve chicken stock for later use.
  3. Shred the cooked chicken into small pieces.
Prepare the Mixture:
  1. Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a pan. Add finely chopped onion and sauté over medium heat until the onion turns slightly golden.
  2. Add ginger-garlic paste and sauté for about 1 minute or until the raw smell disappears.
  3. Add 2 tablespoons of reserved chicken stock and stir to mix.
  4. Add shredded chicken, mashed potatoes, and salt, then sauté and mix thoroughly.
  5. Transfer the mixture to a bowl and allow it to cool down. Once cooled, add green chili, red chili flakes, roasted cumin powder, and cilantro. Mix well.
Shape the Cutlets:
  1. Take a small portion of the mixture and shape it into a round or oval patty. Repeat until the entire mixture is finished.
Coat the Cutlets:
  1. Coat each patty with flour, shaking off any excess.
  2. Dip the cornflour-coated patty into the beaten egg, ensuring it is fully coated.
  3. Then roll it in the breadcrumbs, making sure it is completely covered.
Fry the Cutlets:
  1. Heat ½ inch of oil in a frying pan on medium heat.
  2. Once the oil is hot, add the cutlets in batches. Fry them until golden brown and crisp on both sides, about 3 minutes each side.
  3. Remove the cutlets from the oil and place them on a paper towel to get rid of any excess oil.
  4. Repeat the cooking process until all the remaining chicken cutlets are cooked.
  5. If baking, preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Place the cutlets on a lined baking sheet and bake for 15-20 minutes, flipping halfway through.
Serve
  1. Once cooked, serve them hot or warm as desired.

Notes

  • Ensure all your ingredients are fresh for the best results.
  • Adjust spice levels to your preference. Skip chili flakes and green chili if serving small kids.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan; cook in batches if necessary. To prevent the cutlets from falling apart, make sure the mixture is well combined and the patties are firmly shaped.
  • Change it up! Customize your chicken cutlets with your favorite seasonings. Add parmesan for a cheesy twist or mix in grated carrot, and zucchini for extra veggies.
  • You can make a larger batch and freeze the cutlets. Just cook from frozen, adding a few extra minutes to the cooking time.
