Chicken schnitzel – a dish for diet food fans

Schnitzel has long been loved by a large number of people. This dish is prepared from different types of meat. There is even a vegetarian version made from kale. The main dish is prepared from pork or beef. But for lovers of the most tender dietary meat, chicken schnitzel is unsurpassed. It is prepared according to the same scheme as other versions of the dish. Let's look at several manufacturing instructions with photos step by step.

Chicken schnitzel in a frying pan

This dish cooks quickly – in about 20 minutes and is perfect for a hearty lunch or dinner. For cooking you need:

Chicken breast;
Breadcrumbs - one bowl;
2-3 testicles;
Salt and vegetable oil.

Now the recipe for chicken schnitzel:

Cut the chicken across the grain into pieces of small thickness and approximately the size of the palm of your hand;
Cut any piece in half lengthwise;
We fight off any of them. The main thing is not to overdo it, otherwise very soft pieces will fall apart;
Break the eggs into a small container, beat thoroughly and add salt;
Spray the frying pan with oil and heat it up;
We generously cover each piece with crackers, then immerse it in the egg;
Fry any breaded chicken schnitzel in a frying pan, spending 2 minutes on one side until a slightly crispy golden crust forms;
Serve the finished dish with any side dish of your choice.

Chopped shnitzel is prepared in the same way. Only the meat is previously passed through a meat grinder. Then small oval flat-shaped blanks are formed from it. They are also breaded and fried.

Special Chicken Schnitzel in the Oven with Parmesan

Chicken breast schnitzel is prepared in the oven using the same technology as in a frying pan. The steps are completely the same, only at the end the meat is baked in the oven. It comes out the most affectionate and delicious. Let's look at a fascinating recipe for how to cook chicken schnitzel in bread-parmisan breadcrumbs with spices. Products you need to prepare:

Two chicken breasts;
Three testicles;
Parmesan – 50 g;
Breading crumbs – 100 g;
Unsalted butter – 75 g;
Pepper and herbs to taste.

Let's start the cooking process:

You can use store-bought breading or prepare it yourself. To do this, the dried loaf or bread must be cut and ground in a blender;
Cut the washed and dried fillet in half across the grain and beat slightly;
Grate the cheese and combine it with crackers, beat the eggs and add salt;
Add chicken pieces, then dip into beaten egg and roll in breading. Repeat these actions again;
We cover the baking dish with parchment, grease it with butter and transfer our preparations onto it. It is better to use a glass or cast iron mold. In it, the meat will cook faster and acquire an appetizing crispy crust;
Sprinkle the pieces with pepper and spices, place a small plate of butter on top of any of them and place in the oven for 15 minutes at 180 degrees;
Afterwards you need to turn the pieces over, sprinkle with the remaining bread-Parmesan breading and spices. Bake for another 15-20 minutes;
The finished dish will look unsurpassed when served on lettuce leaves with lemon wedges and quartered tomatoes.

Chicken schnitzel with cheese

Another recipe with cheese. But it differs from the previous one in breading. Products needed:

Two chicken breasts;
Two testicles;
Flour and mayonnaise - 2 huge spoons each;
Hard cheese – 100 g;
Pepper and spices for chicken;
Vegetable oil for frying.

The beginning of production is the same as in the first recipe. The first three steps are duplicated. Next we make chicken schnitzel like this:

Three cheeses on a large grater;
In a deep plate, beat the eggs, then add mayonnaise and flour, mix thoroughly until a homogeneous mixture without lumps;
Knead the dough into a thin dough, then combine it with the cheese and mix everything well;
Heat a frying pan over a flame and sprinkle it with vegetable oil;
We immerse each piece in the egg-cheese mixture, then transfer it to a frying pan and fry on each side until golden brown;
Be sure to serve it hot with any side dish to taste.

You can do it much simpler: prepare the dish according to the first recipe and simply sprinkle the finished roast meat pieces on top with grated cheese. It will melt and you can enjoy the great taste of the food.

Ministerial Chicken Schnitzel

This dish is prepared using a variety of methods. This recipe differs in that the Schnitzel will be breaded in breadcrumbs in the form of bread sticks. For production you will need:

4 chicken fillets;
For lezon – 2 eggs and 4 huge spoons of milk;
The loaf is snow-white;
Flour – 5 huge spoons;
Butter – 80 g frozen and 5 huge spoons of melted butter for frying;
Salt, pepper and spices.

Let's take a closer look at the cooking process:

Let's prepare the breading right away. To do this, we get rid of the crusts on the loaf. Place the soft snow-white bread in the freezer for about 20 minutes. We take out and cut the blanks into 4 mm thickness. Again, immerse them in the cold for about 5 minutes, then create a medium-sized straw from the loaf, which is suitable in size for 1 piece of meat;
Place the meat on the board, film side down. Cut off small fillets. They are called minions;
Using the tip of a knife, separate the film from the pieces;
Without turning the fillet over, make a cut in the center, approximately half the thickness of the piece;
Next we cut the meat in both directions from the middle;
Fold back the edges and open the fillet;
We carefully beat any piece to 4-6 mm in thickness;
In the same way we beat off the minions, cutting out a snow-white vein on them;
Place frozen butter on the center of a huge chop, and place a small piece of fillet on top of it. Add salt and pepper;
Cover with one unfolded edge, then the second. The result is a system similar to a roll. Place the preparations on a plate and place them in the refrigerator for half an hour;
In one bowl mix flour with salt and pepper, in the second bowl combine beaten eggs with milk;
Alternately dip the meat pieces into the first container and roll them, then into the second;
The main step of this recipe: pour a bread straw onto a plate, transfer the Schnitzel onto it and sprinkle the same straw on top, pressing it tightly so that there are no “gaps” left on the chicken;
It is better to move the preparations into the refrigerator for half an hour to strengthen the adhesion of the bread to the meat;
Heat the vegetable oil well in a frying pan. But you don’t need to overexpose it to such an extent that the smoke begins to move. If it is cool or not warmed up enough, the crackers will be extremely saturated with it, and if it is very hot, the breading will burn;
Transfer the meat to the frying pan and fry for 3-4 minutes on each side until the breading becomes golden brown. The main thing is not to overcook so that the bread does not burn and the meat inside remains juicy;
Then we put everything on a baking sheet and put it in the oven for 10-15 minutes at 200 degrees.

Chicken schnitzel “Ministerial style”

This is a traditional dish from the era of stagnation. It was served in all restaurants, sold in all stores under the name “Cooking”. And what’s most fascinating is that nothing more delicious has been invented from chicken breast. Well, maybe just chicken Kiev, although it also comes from the same times. A half-forgotten recipe from yesteryear. Ordinary ingredients, without any arugula, parmesan or anchovies. And how delicious it is! I plucked up the courage and audacity to write my own master class. I'm obviously not a chef. But I have many friends who are chefs in metropolitan restaurants, and they all really like the way I cook, they tell me: “Katya, you are a born cook from God, you just lack a little technique and knowledge, but... Anything you do in the kitchen is great, you know how to cook.” And therefore, inspired by these words, I am showing my own master class.

Ingredients for “Ministerial Chicken Schnitzel”:

Chicken breast – 400 g
Bread (snow-white)
Chicken egg - 2 pcs
Spices (salt, pepper, to taste)
Wheat flour / Flour (for dusting)

Recipe for “Ministerial Chicken Schnitzel”:

Naturally, guys, you can just use chicken breasts, but I think that’s not masterful.
How curious it is for any chef who is in love with his profession to take a whole chicken and cut it up. Although I’m not a pro, I cut it anyway. Here lies a breast without skin, but with bones for now.

Next, use a sharp knife to separate two fillets from the breast.
The bones will go into a beautiful broth. We have two chicken fillets.

Each chicken fillet is divided into small and large.
Small is just such a flat thing that slides into your hands. And now look closely at the small fillet, do you see a strip of connective tissue (the structure of tissues of living organisms is studied by the science of histology) ?
This must be removed without fail. I marked this moment in the photo with the tip of a knife. I think you can see it.

Now let's tackle the huge fillet.
I ask you right away - under no circumstances should you hit it with a hammer to make it thinner :))) This is so incorrect :))) that there are simply no words. Let me teach you how to create. On the side where the thickest piece is, you take a sharp knife and carefully make a cut, first along the breast, and then parallel to the bottom layer, well, it seems, from the middle to the edges, and without cutting through the bottom. And you open the breast like a book, if anyone is unclear, then write to me in a personal message, I will be happy to answer.

But after that you can happily beat it off with a hammer, but only, friends, without much interest and better with a rolling pin, and under the film. Let's learn to cook correctly.

Well, if we are learning to cook correctly, then now look at this photo, do you see the snow-white vein? On the right side it is clearly visible, but on the left I used a special knife, can you see? Naturally, this garbage can be removed, but only we will cut through the skin, so it will be quite easy to cut it diagonally.

In principle, the most “difficult” part is already behind. Although I want to write - not difficult, but correct :), now all that remains is to lightly grease the breasts with oil, salt and pepper, place a small fillet on the main fillet, wrap, dip in flour, then in an egg and, finally, in a tenderloin of snow-white bread. This is one of the main criteria. And my advice is to put a loaf of snow-white bread in the freezer for 15 minutes, then it will be easier to cut.

That's basically it.
My friends who are professional chefs think that I coped with my task perfectly. Hope.
And even if it’s bad, then I always remain your Ketty-fox, see you later, friends
