How to cook chicken patties or chicken cutlets?
Grease a skillet or pan with oil and heat it on a medium flame.
Oil for pan frying
Add 6 to 8 patties based on the size of the pan and drizzle oil. After 3 to 4 minutes, flip and cook on the other side for another 3 to 4 minutes. Cook until golden brown. Drizzle oil as needed.
Serve warm with ketchup, mayo, and some sauteed green beans, and enjoy.
- You can make up to the batter or till shaping the patties and breading them. Store them in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
- Cooked chicken can be stored as per USDA for four days. So it all depends on how long you have stored the leftover chicken.
