Steamed chicken cutlets turn out juicy. Taste and aroma natural meat(if possible, take poultry) does not interrupt the fried oil - this is why I love steaming cutlets, as well as other dishes! If you have a double boiler, cook the cutlets in it, I cooked them in a slow cooker, which is also very convenient (and even more convenient than having a double boiler, thanks to the slow cooker, valuable space in the kitchen is saved!) The side dish for such cutlets can be anything, prepare it at the same time as cooking the cutlets and you will have a tasty, satisfying and, most importantly, healthy lunch!
Let's get started! Prepare minced chicken (the cutlets will be tastier if you prepare the minced meat yourself domestic chicken, removed from the entire carcass so that the minced meat contains both meat from the breasts and meat from the thighs, i.e. both white and red meat) onions, garlic, bread, milk, egg, salt, black pepper, vegetable oil.
Break an egg into the minced chicken, add bread twisted in a meat grinder (pre-soaked in milk).
Then add fried onion (small cubes), garlic (chopped), salt, pepper to the minced meat.
Knead the minced meat until smooth and with wet hands form cutlets of the same size and arbitrary shape (you will get 12 cutlets in total).
Place the cutlets in a steamer or multicooker tray for steaming. Since I cooked steamed chicken cutlets in a slow cooker, I will further talk about the process of preparing cutlets in it.
Don't forget to pour water into the multicooker pan! Cook the cutlets for 20 minutes ("Steam" program). Place the finished cutlets in a saucepan and cook in the same way the cutlets that did not fit into the pan the previous time.
When the chicken cutlets are ready and the side dish is ready, you can invite everyone for lunch!
Bon appetit!
Beef cutlets with a crispy crust are a classic. But now most people try to stick to proper nutrition. And if cutlets are prepared, they use chicken meat, which is considered a dietary product.
Minced chicken meat, especially breast meat, turns out to be a bit dry. To make chicken cutlets juicy, you need to cook them a little differently than beef cutlets. For example, in a double boiler. This method of heat treatment preserves most of the nutrients and vitamins in any product.

A steamer is an indispensable assistant for any mother in the kitchen. You can prepare many healthy and tasty children's dishes in it. It is very easy and quick to prepare chicken cutlets in a double boiler for children. They taste very tender.
As a side dish for chicken cutlets cooked in a double boiler, you can serve any porridge, for example, buckwheat or pasta.
The recipe is suitable for children over 1 year old.
Ingredients:
chicken breast– 1 pc.
egg – 1 pc.
onion – 1 pc. small size
sour cream – 1 tbsp.
salt - to taste
breadcrumbs - 2 tbsp.
We prepare cutlets from homemade chicken breast, so it is quite large in size. If you use store-bought chicken, you can use two double fillets - they will be enough for 7 cutlets. So, rinse the chicken meat, place it on a cutting board and cut the chicken into cubes 2-3 cm in size.
Place the pieces of chicken into the bowl of a food processor or blender and grind the meat until smooth.
Feel the minced meat with your hands to check if there are any films or veins. If there are any, remove them from the minced meat and discard them.
Transfer the minced chicken to a bowl.
Peel the onions, wash them and grate them on a fine grater. You can also pass the onion through a meat grinder. Add onion pulp to the minced meat.
Break the egg and also add to the minced meat.
Add a spoonful of sour cream (also preferably homemade) - this ingredient will make the chicken cutlets tender. At the same time, bread ( traditional ingredient cutlets) we will not add to make the cutlets truly dietary.
Salt the minced meat and mix it well.
Place breadcrumbs on a plate. Wet your hands in water (so that the minced meat does not stick to them) and form cutlets. Roll them in breadcrumbs and place on a steamer rack.
Crackers are used only for decorative purposes - so that the cutlets keep their shape and do not stick to the steamer grate. However, even without breading, the cutlets can be easily separated from the steamer, albeit with slight losses of chicken meat.
After placing the cutlets on the grill, cover the steamer with a lid and set the timer for 40 minutes (if we are talking about homemade chicken cutlets, because it takes a long time to cook). If you have store-bought chicken breast, 25 minutes in a double boiler will be enough for the cutlets.
Tender chicken cutlets for children in a double boiler are ready!
