Such cutlets from chicken fillet are often called chopped, because meat is not twisted to a homogeneous mass in a meat grinder, but simply cut. Meat particles are clearly visible in each cutlet.

However, in the preparation of these cutlets there is one minus - they are not as strong as regular cutlets, and can easily fall apart. If you have something similar when you are frying, then you have added few eggs. Strain another one or two eggs in the meat mass, and the situation will radically change. If they still fall apart, pour a few spoons of flour into the mixture.

Stir the contents of the bowl thoroughly - the dough should be homogeneous. After that, we make small cutlets, before you send them to a frying pan, you need to roll them in crumbs.
