Tender soft cutlets
Description
The recipe won't take much time. In fact, any cutlets—pork, beef, or poultry—can be tender and soft. However, not all of them are healthy, as fried fatty meat dishes put strain on the intestines and the body overall. On the contrary, light chicken cutlets turn out to be quite diet-friendly and juicy. To prepare tender, soft cutlets, you can use a steamer or fry them in a pan. Serve hot.

Step 2
Then, pass the chicken fillet, buckwheat, onion, and carrot through a meat grinder (you can pre-chop the vegetables finely, and grate the carrot on a grater). Also, add spices to taste and minced garlic to the meat mixture. Then, beat in an egg.

Step 4
From the resulting minced mixture, I usually get about 5-6 patties. Shape them with wet hands. I recommend cooking in a steamer for 30-40 minutes. If you don't have a steamer, simply fry them on a preheated skillet with a small amount of vegetable oil until golden brown (about 15-20 minutes, possibly less).
