How to Fry Chicken Chops
Products
Chicken breast fillet - 3 pieces Cheese - 150 grams Ham - 150 grams Egg - 2 pieces Garlic - 1-2 cloves Ground black pepper, salt, spices - to taste Flour - 1 tablespoon (topped)
How to Fry Chicken Chops
1. Wash 3 chicken breast fillets (for chops, it is preferable to use chilled chicken meat rather than chicken) and dry with a paper towel. Cut each layer with a sharp knife along the base into two layers. Do not cut all the way so that the breasts can be opened. If the knife went right through the fillet in some places, you need to overlap the edges of the hole when beating it. Then, when lowered into the batter, the minced meat will not come out. 2. Beat the meat on both sides. The blows should be applied carefully so as not to tear the pieces. Lightly salt the finished chops, sprinkle with spices and ground black pepper and marinate for several minutes. 3. Grate 150 grams of cheese on a coarse grater, cut 150 grams of ham into cubes and place in layers on half of each breast. 4. Cover the filling with the other half of the breast, pat it a little with your hand to evenly distribute the mass and beat it around the edges - “seal” the breast. 5. In a deep plate, beat 2 eggs with a whisk, add a pinch of salt and a chopped clove of garlic. Continuing to stir, add a tablespoon of flour. The result should be a homogeneous consistency, similar in thickness to sour cream. As an option for batter, shake the egg mixture with salt and pour the flour into different plates. In this case, the chicken chops need to be rolled first in flour and then dipped in the egg. This must be done carefully so that the filling does not fall out. 6. After dipping the chicken chops into the batter, immediately place them in a hot frying pan. 7. Fry over moderate heat on both sides for about 8 minutes until golden brown. Carefully turn the chops with a spatula or fork so as not to tear the pieces. This should be done quickly, with one movement of the hand, then the batter will not spread across the pan.
