Usually they cook chicken fillet chops in a pan, which is what we propose to do. The classic version of chops can be safely used in dietary cuisine - there is not much flour and oil in it, and therefore, in general, the dish turns out to be lightweight.

Chicken fillet chops can be safely used in dietary cuisine.

The products required are the following:

• a couple of medium-sized chicken fillets;
• garlic - 1-2 cloves;
• pepper and salt;
• frying oil;
• egg;
• a few tablespoons of flour (we recommend using not only wheat, but also whole grain - it will be even more useful).

The dish is prepared like this:

1. Lightly beat off the dried and chopped fillet. Tip: when beating the meat, put the pieces between two plastic bags, then there will be no splashing. You can immediately put a little garlic in the bag - it will give the meat interesting notes.
2. Sprinkle the chop with ground fresh pepper and salt.
3. Whisk an egg.
4. Pour flour into a separate plate for dipping.
5. After heating the pan well, dip the chop in the egg, and then in the flour and immediately place it on the hot oil. Flip until golden brown and fry again.

Classic chops are ready.

Breaded

Chops in batter are loved by students and bachelors - due to the batter they turn out to be thick, lush, satisfying. There are a whole mountain of them, and the taste is quite nothing to itself. So, the whole honest company will be well-fed and satisfied.

So, for a batter based on a kilogram of fillet, you need:

• 2 large chicken eggs;
• wheat flour - 8 tbsp. spoons;
• 4 good spoons of sour cream (if not available, you can replace it with milk);
• salt and pepper - as needed.

To prepare the batter, mix beaten eggs with salt, pepper and flour. Mix until smooth. The density of the batter should be approximately identical to the density of liquid sour cream. If there is not enough flour - add.

Dip prepared pieces of beaten chicken in batter and immediately send to very hot oil. After waiting for the formation of the first crust around the edges of the chop, turn it over to the next side and fry in the same way. Then return to the first side again and fry until the end.

A well-cooked batter will be light, porous and delicious.

How to cook in breadcrumbs?

This is a very simple and affordable recipe, the result of which, by the way, differs from other chops in its special crunchiness. If you want to crunch with a pleasant crust - fry breaded chicken chops.

A dish of other chops with a special crispy crust.

The principle of cooking meat pieces is the same, but the whole secret is in the breading. It can be bought ready-made, with the addition of hot or other spices. The more interesting the composition of the breading mixture, the more original the chops will turn out. But if you only have ready-made breadcrumbs on hand, then add a pinch of dried paprika to them - it will give aroma and taste. In the absence of paprika, add any dry spices that are in the house - they will not be superfluous.

Tip: when starting to fry in breadcrumbs, do not forget to make sure that the crackers are fresh.

Even a recently bought pack, after standing for a short time, suddenly turns rancid, which unimaginably and irrevocably spoils the taste of chops.

Prepare chops in breadcrumbs like this:

1. Beat an egg;
2. Prepare the beaten fillet;
3. Prepare breading;

This recipe does not require an egg, instead use 2 tbsp. spoons of mayonnaise. You will also need 400 g of chicken fillet and 150 g of semolina. Oil, salt and pepper are taken as needed.

The cooking process is very simple:

1. Coat the broken pieces with a thin layer of mayonnaise and set aside;
2. Pour salt, pepper into semolina, it’s good to add dried dill as well;
3. After mixing the breading mixture, put a piece of meat on it, press it strongly so that the breading fits as tightly as possible to the chop;
4. Fry in oil for five minutes on both sides.

With added cheese

Chicken and cheese are the perfect combination!

For 1 breast we prepare:

• a couple of eggs;
• flour 100 g;
• grated hard cheese 200 g;
• spices to taste;
• flour and butter - as needed.

It is done like this:

1. Broken pieces of breast (there should be 4 of them from one fillet) sprinkle with pepper. You can use nutmeg or cardamom, and whole grain mustard is also good.
2. Separately beat eggs with salt and spices.
3. Grate the cheese.
4. Prepare flour in a bowl.
5. Heat up the oil.
6. Dip prepared chops in flour and dip in egg.
7. Fry until crispy on one side.
8. Turning over, put a little grated cheese on the fried side and, having covered with a lid, wait for the cheese to melt.
9. After garnishing the chops with green salad or potatoes, serve.

Lazy chicken chops

Lazy chops come out more like meat pancakes than classic chops, but still taste delicious.

Cooking:

• 400 g chicken fillet;
• a couple of eggs;
• 4 spoons of mayonnaise;
• 5 tablespoons of wheat flour;
• spices you like, and oil for frying.

The cooking process is very simple. Pat the chicken dry and cut into small pieces. Put them in a bowl, add eggs, mayonnaise, flour and spices and mix everything. Leave to marinate for a quarter of an hour.

Heat the oil and put the meat mixture into it using a tablespoon. After frying one pancake, turn it over to the second side and fry until the end. Everything is fried instantly, just a couple of minutes on each side.

Put the finished chops on a plate and cover with another on top to become softer.

In a frying pan in a hurry

Very fast and tasty dish.

Quick chops with onions are prepared in the same way. If you add a finely chopped medium-sized onion to the mixture of meat, mayonnaise, flour and spices, and then fry in the same way as chopped chicken fillet chops, you will get a kind of onion-chicken cutlets, very juicy and tasty. And this dish is prepared really quickly. By the way, if you leave the mixture ready-made on the top shelf of the refrigerator, it will last a couple of days. At any time, you can fry fresh chops for dinner.

with pineapple

By the way, breast chops in the oven turn out great, especially if you diversify the recipe and make great chops with pineapple.

Need:

• half a pineapple;
• grated cheese - 30 g.

Put the prepared chops on a baking sheet greased with vegetable oil, salt and pepper,

Put the sliced ​​pieces of peeled and core pineapple on top of the meat slices. Next, lay out the thinly sliced ​​chili peppers.

Sprinkle everything with grated cheese on top and send to bake in the oven, preheated to 200 degrees. Chops with pineapple are baked for 15 minutes.

Chicken Schnitzel

Chicken schnitzel differs from the usual chop only in that during its preparation, the chopped pieces of meat are rolled first in flour, then dipped in lezon, then sprinkled with breadcrumbs and only then fried.

After tasting this wonderful schnitzel, everyone will demand more.

For two chicken breasts, the lezon is made from a mixture of 50 ml of milk and two eggs, as well as with the addition of pepper and salt.

For half a kilo of fillet is taken:

• a couple of spoons of fresh honey;
• one spoonful of mustard;
• 1 onion;
• dried parsley, rosemary sprig;
• vegetable oil.

Fillet, cut into thin long beautiful strips, salt and pepper, add herbs, honey and mustard. The marinade should stand for at least half an hour. In the meantime, fry the onion cut into half rings in oil and add the pickled chicken meat to it. Fry everything again so that the chicken becomes beautiful and ready.

You can garnish the dish with potatoes or rice.

Rules for good chops

To make the chops juicy and tender, you need to cook them from chicken fillet.

1. To make the product tender and juicy, do not buy chicken fillet, look for chicken fillet.
2. The meat must be washed in pieces and allowed to dry. If you wash the cut pieces or dry them poorly, water will enter the pan with the meat and instantly reduce the heat of the oil. The crust then forms slowly, which means that the chop will lose its already low juiciness.
3. You should cut only across the fibers and one thickness - ideally a centimeter or one and a half each piece.
4. Beat gently, but qualitatively. Not much, but enough to destroy all fiber connections.
5. Any recipe will only benefit if the meat is pre-marinated. This is due to the fact that the chicken itself is quite bland and adding "pepper" to it is never harmful. It can be ordinary vegetable oil with garlic or onions, or spices. The main thing is to marinate for two hours before frying. Even simple mustard, if sprinkled on meat, will save it from loss of juice and add some zest to the taste.
6. The fact that there was no place for salt in the previous tip is not a mistake. Chicken chops should not be salted until the very end of frying, otherwise the salt will release all the water from them and make them hard and tasteless. Only after the formation of a crust can salt be added. This advice applies to those recipes where the meat is directly fried in oil. When using batter, you need to salt immediately.
7. Chops in batter, in a “fur coat” or in flour are not just cooking options, but different ways to keep juiciness.
8. Too much heat, too little oil. Fry in a hot pan, two to three minutes is enough for each side.

Chicken fillet chops are so versatile that they can be a great decoration for a festive table or simply delight at a lunch meal. The main thing is to learn how to cook them correctly and diversify standard recipes.

In this case, it will always be possible to create something special and unique from a standard, at first glance, product.

• Chicken egg 2 pieces
• Wheat flour 2-3 tablespoons
• Mayonnaise 2 tablespoons in batter and 100 grams for deboning
• Salt to taste
• Ground black pepper to taste
• All-purpose seasoning for chicken to taste
• Vegetable oil as needed

We take a fresh boneless chicken breast, rinse it thoroughly under streams of cold running water, dry it with paper kitchen towels, put it on a cutting board and use a sharp kitchen knife to get rid of excess fat, film, and cartilage.

Then we cut the meat across the fibers into slices 2 centimeters thick. In turn, we cover each piece with plastic wrap and beat it with a kitchen hammer so that the thickness decreases to about 1 centimeter, and the area doubles.

Sprinkle the beaten chicken on all sides to taste with salt, black pepper, transfer to a plate and proceed to the next step.

Using a sieve with a fine mesh, sift into a deep clean bowl all the wheat flour indicated in the recipe, preferably of the highest grade. This step is very important, due to it the grain ground almost into dust is dried, becomes looser and gets rid of any kind of litter. That is why products made from such flour are more magnificent, and it does not matter what it is used for!

Next, put fresh chicken eggs in a deep plate and beat them with a table fork until fluffy for about two minutes. Then add a couple of tablespoons of sifted wheat flour, salt, ground black pepper, universal chicken seasoning to the resulting mass and shake everything until a homogeneous semi-thick consistency without lumps - the batter is ready!

Now we put a frying pan on medium heat, pour a little vegetable oil into it, 3-4 tablespoons will be enough for a start, and give it the opportunity to warm up. At this time, roll a piece of chicken breast first in flour, and then dip on all sides in batter.

Literally after a few minutes, we dip the first portion of meat into well-heated fat and cook on both sides, about 2-3 minutes each. As soon as the chops are golden brown, use a kitchen spatula to transfer the finished dish to a large flat dish and fry the rest of the chicken breast in the same way.

Battered chicken breast chops are served hot as a second main course. Any complex or light side dish is suitable for this yummy, for example, cereals from various cereals, legumes, rice, as well as pasta, mashed potatoes, stewed, baked, boiled or steamed vegetables or salads. Marinades, pickles, sauces based on cream, sour cream, milk, tomatoes or mayonnaise will be a great addition to such chops. Cook with love and enjoy delicious food!
Bon appetit!

Tender chicken fillet chops are a great option for a quick and satisfying dinner. They are prepared absolutely simply, they look beautiful and appetizing, and the taste of these chops is simply wonderful. They can be served as an excellent separate dish, or with any delicious side dish of cereals or vegetables.

• 2 chicken fillets;
• 2 fresh eggs;
• Flour - one glass;
• Olive oil - how much is needed for frying;
• Seasonings by preference;
• Salt to personal taste.

First you need to rinse the chicken fillet, and then take a sharp knife and carefully cut it lengthwise into thin slices. One medium-sized fillet should make five slices.

If the fillet is from a young chicken, then it may not require beating. But if you want to do everything according to the classics, you can lightly beat off each slice on both sides.

To roll the chicken pieces, pour flour into a flat plate.

Each piece is rolled in flour on both sides, then carefully dipped in an egg, after which it is once again placed in flour. Any vegetable oil is suitable for frying, but it will be more useful to take olive oil.

Chops are laid out in hot oil in a pan and fried on each side for at least three minutes. Since the pieces are quite thin, during this time they will have time to fry.

Chops can be garnished with fresh herbs before serving.

Recipe 4: Battered Chicken Breast in a Pan

• half or whole chicken breast,
• half a glass of milk
• 3-4 tablespoons of flour (the batter should be fairly thick)
• salt,
• ground pepper

I start the cooking process by preparing all the ingredients for the batter. I immediately put the flour in a bowl (but not all).

I add milk to the flour, meanwhile I intensively mix everything with a whisk.

Lumps in a batter of milk and flour should not be in any case.

I wash the chicken breast very well under running water. If there are bones or cartilage on the breast, then I carefully cut them out with a sharp knife.

Then I cut the meat like chops. I don’t beat meat with a hammer, since chicken meat after frying will be soft and tasty anyway.

If you use pork meat or beef, then be sure to beat it with a hammer after cutting.

Salt and pepper the chicken breast pieces.

Then gently dip them on both sides in batter.

I spread the meat in a pan and fry it until golden, first on a minimum fire, and then on a large one.

Recipe 5: Battered Chicken Breast Chops (Step by Step)

Who doesn't love these delicious and juicy chicken chops? Yes, we all love this dish. We love it for its delicate taste, for this batter, which is so appetizingly behind the meat. We love it for the speed of cooking, for the fact that from just two chicken breasts you can cook a whole mountain of chops and feed the whole family from the belly. To be honest, this is an indispensable dish, a real lifesaver, so the recipe for chicken chops should certainly be in the arsenal of every housewife.

• 2 chicken breasts
• 2 eggs
• vegetable oil
• pepper

So, we take two large chicken breasts. If the breasts are small, then for a given number of chops, we will need three or four breasts.

Using a sharp knife, cut the chicken breasts into thin slices. Although there is a rule in cooking to cut meat across the grain, an exception is made for chicken chops: breasts are cut along, not across.

As a result, we get beautiful thin plates. Salt and pepper each piece. For a given amount of chicken, about a teaspoon of salt without a slide goes.

If you follow the classic recipe for cooking chicken chops, then the meat should be carefully beaten off. But I'll tell you a secret: the days of "sporty" roosters and "blue" chickens are long gone. Now young chickens are on sale, which have very tender meat, so there is no need to beat the chicken fillet. Of course, if the plates turned out to be too thick, then you can beat them off.

Wash the eggs, break into a bowl, and then beat with a pinch of salt. I use a flat plate, it's more convenient for me.

First, dip each chicken plate in flour.

Dip both sides in the beaten egg.

Dip the chicken chop again on both sides in flour. Shake off excess flour a little.

We take a frying pan. Pour vegetable oil. The more oil used in frying, the tastier any chops will be. But we should not forget that food should also be healthy, and not just tasty.

When the pan is hot enough with the oil, put the chicken chops in the pan.

We fry on medium heat. When the egg batter is browned on one side, flip the chicken chop over to the other side.

We make sure that the fire is not too strong, the batter should brown, not burn. Fry chicken chops for literally two minutes on each side, because chicken meat cooks very, very quickly. For the same reason, do not cover the pan with a lid.

Hot and fragrant chicken chops are served on the table. Fresh vegetables are best as a side dish, but, of course, traditional potatoes, porridge or pasta are more satisfying.

Recipe 8: How to cook battered chicken chops

Chicken fillet chicken chops are loved by athletes and those who watch their figure, but lovers of juicy meat do not prefer it, because they consider this type of meat dry and inexpressive. I will try to dispel this myth, and for this I propose to cook according to my recipe. Due to the lush batter, all the juice remains inside the meat, and the chicken turns out to be tender and juicy.

• Chicken breast fillet - 2 pcs
• Chicken egg - 1 pc.
• Mineral water - 30 ml
• Flour - 3.5 tbsp
• Salt, black pepper - to taste
• Sunflower oil - for frying

Wash chicken fillet and pat dry with paper towel. If the fillet is large, you can cut it in half. You can buy a breast in a store and cut it, it often turns out cheaper. At the same time, bones should not be thrown away, you can cook broth from them, which will serve for making sauces or become the basis of chicken soup.

Close the fillet with double plastic wrap or a bag. Beat well with a kitchen hammer. The bag will keep pieces of meat from flying around the kitchen, and if you have a wooden mallet, you know how difficult it is to clean.

Salt and pepper the chop on both sides.

Prepare batter for chicken chops. To do this, break one egg into the bowl, add the sifted flour and pour water. The consistency of the batter should be like sour cream. If the batter turned out to be very thick, you can add a little water, and if it is liquid, flour. Salt and beat with a whisk. Dip the chicken chops one by one into the batter.

Heat up a frying pan with vegetable oil. Lay out the chops.

Fry chicken breast chops on both sides until golden brown for 6-7 minutes over medium heat. If you see that the chops are browning well, but the meat is not yet ready in time, you can reduce the heat, or vice versa, add if the chicken chops are not browned enough.

Chicken chop in batter is ready. You can serve this dish with a light side dish, such as a salad. Bon appetit.

Recipe 9: battered chicken fillet in a pan

• chicken fillet - weighing about 500 gr.,
• salt, black ground pepper - to taste.

for batter:

• eggs - 2 pcs.,
• sour cream or mayonnaise - 2 tbsp. spoons,
• flour - 2 tbsp. spoons,
• rast. oil - for frying.

Chicken chops are made from fillets, but you can also cook them from chicken legs. But this requires skill and more time. But since we, as always, are running out of time, we will cook from chicken breast.

For this dish, I had one fillet on the bone. I thawed it beforehand, but not completely. This makes it easier to cut the breast into desired pieces. But first I cut out the bone, it will go to make soup or maybe cabbage soup. I got two medium pieces of fillet. I cut each of them lengthwise and this is what I got.

As everyone knows, chicken fillet in itself is rather dry meat, but in order to give the dish juiciness and tenderness, a juicy vegetable should be added to it. For example, carrots or zucchini. But since this is not suitable in our case, sour cream and some spices will help us out.

Chopped pieces of chicken fillet, I propose to slightly beat off. This is not necessary, but this step will help give our chicken chops tenderness and softness. You can beat the meat in different ways, but I use a proven and very convenient way for a long time. So, I cover the cutting board with cling film, put pieces of meat on it, add salt and pepper.

I cover the meat with a second piece of cling film, and wrap the edges on the sides a little so that it is cleaner later.

Then, with the help of a kitchen hammer and preferably a wooden one, lightly beat off the meat. First on one side, then turn the bag over with the meat on the other side and continue to beat. But look, do not overdo it, otherwise the meat may break.

Now, for now, we set aside the board with meat to the side and take care of the batter. There are also a lot of recipes for batter today. I suggest this one: in a small bowl, mix eggs with sour cream. To give the meat super tenderness, put mayonnaise instead of sour cream.

Mix thoroughly and add flour.

By consistency, the batter should turn out like sour cream.

If you doubt that the cooked batter is not enough for you, you can do the following: place all the pieces of beaten meat in a bowl with batter and mix, but by hand. so as not to damage the meat.
