Cut up the chicken, remove the skin, and take the meat off the bones. Using a heavy knife (or even more conveniently, two knives), chop the chicken meat coarsely to make a rough mince. You can also use a meat grinder, but chopped cutlets have a special flavor.

Serve the patties immediately, while hot. They go well with vegetables as a side dish, which can be lightly sautéed in the fat left over from cooking the patties.
