Probably, you have met with the problem of lack of ideas when making a holiday menu. The fact is that you want to surprise your relatives and friends with something new and unusual. But, as a rule, on the Internet we come across very mediocre recipes, as if for every day.
For this reason, on the table we always have the same salads, cutlets and French-style meat. To
get rid of monotony will help recipes from different countries
.
For example, in France they cook cutlets slightly differently. We will show you how you can cook chicken instead of cutlets in an original way.
Ingredients for breaded chicken:
- chicken shanks – kg;
- breadcrumbs – 150 g;
- potatoes – kg;
- eggs – 3 pcs;
- cheese – 200 g;
- flour – 4 tbsp;
- salt – ½ tsp;
- vegetable oil – 300 ml;
- parsley – a bunch.
Cooking chicken in breading:
Boil until ready (about 35 minutes) chicken shanks. In the water you can add your favorite spices, salt and bay leaves. After cooking, you need to leave the shanks to cool in the broth
. Next, we separate the meat from the bone, but do not throw away the bones – they are needed for this recipe. We cut the meat into small cubes.
Peeled potatoes should be boiled until soft, and then turn into mashed potatoes. Cheese is shredded on large grater cutters, finely chop parsley or dill
. Combine in one bowl mashed potatoes, meat, cheese and herbs, salt and mix until homogeneous. Form large balls from the prepared mass, where we insert the bones. It should turn out like chicken legs.
Roll the legs in flour, then in beaten eggs and breadcrumbs. Heat vegetable oil in a frying pan, fry the legs on both sides until browned.
Before serving, we recommend placing the legs on a paper towel to remove excess fat. The dish can be served with sour cream, garlic or mustard sauce.
