Step 1:
How to make juicy chicken breast cutlets with cheese? Take the following products: chicken breast, hard cheese, egg, mayonnaise, starch (or flour), salt, turmeric (or your favorite seasoning), frying oil.
Step 2:
Remove the fillet from the chicken breast and cut it into small cubes. This is the most time-consuming process in this recipe, but believe me, the minced meat prepared in this way gives exactly those juicy cutlets! I learned this trick a long time ago, her familiar cook told me, when the Internet was just appearing, and the recipe was not widely known.
Step 3:
Add the remaining ingredients to the chopped breast: egg, grated hard cheese, starch, mayonnaise, turmeric. Add salt to the mixture. Sometimes I like to add finely chopped sweet pepper, it turns out even more juicy and piquant. This is optional - a basic recipe is offered.
Step 4:
Mix the minced meat well and let it stand for a while so that all the components exchange their flavors and connect better with each other.
Step 5:
In a frying pan with heated oil, fry the cutlets on both sides, spreading them with a spoon.
Step 6:
Put the resulting cutlets on a platter. There are two ways to bring them to readiness: fold all the fried cutlets back into the pan, add a little water and steam them under the lid until ready, in which case they will become more magnificent due to the boiling of starch.
Step 7:
The second way is to fry longer on each side over medium heat so that the chicken is well fried. The first method is more gentle for health. especially if you cook for children or the elderly.

Wonderful juicy chicken breast cutlets with cheese.

Use oil with a high smoking temperature for frying! Any oils are useful only until a certain temperature is reached - the point of smoking, at which the oil begins to burn and toxic substances, including carcinogens, are formed in it.
Unrefined oils, with rare exceptions, have a low smoking point. There are a lot of unfiltered organic particles in them, which quickly begin to burn.
Refined oils are more resistant to heating, and their smoking point is higher. If you are going to cook food in the oven, on a frying pan or grill, make sure that you use oil with a high smoking point. The most common of the oils with a high smoking point: refined varieties of sunflower, olive and grape.

It is better to prepare mayonnaise yourself. It will be tastier and healthier. See here interesting recipes for homemade mayonnaise.
Also, as a dressing, you can use not only mayonnaise, but also sour cream or natural yogurt. They can be taken separately or mixed with mayonnaise in any proportion to your taste - this will reduce the calorie content of the dish.

Chicken can be replaced with turkey or any other type of meat at your request. But keep in mind that in this case, the cooking time and calorie content of the dish will change.
