Chicken leg patties
Description
The ingredients for cutlets can be quite varied: meat, fish, vegetables. I assure you that cutlets made from chicken thighs are exceptionally delicious. They can be prepared for everyday meals or for any festive occasion. If desired, you can substitute chicken drumsticks with ready-made chicken fillet, but in that case, be sure to add a small piece of pork fat to the minced meat for juiciness.

Rinse the chicken drumsticks, pat them dry, remove the skin, and separate the meat from the bones. Transfer the chicken meat to the blender bowl. I'm using home-raised poultry, which already has enough fat; if your meat is lean, simply add 30-50 grams of fresh pork fat.
