Chicken cutlets with mushrooms and cheese

4 servings

30 minutes

Chicken cutlets with mushrooms and cheese embody home comfort and gastronomic delight. This recipe, inspired by Russian cuisine, combines the tenderness of chicken mince, the juiciness of champignons, and the piquancy of parmesan. Historically, such cutlets emerged as an effort to add variety to traditional meat dishes, making them richer and more aromatic. The crispy golden crust conceals a soft center filled with mushrooms, making each cutlet special. The cheese adds stretchiness and a slight saltiness to the dish, while dill provides a fresh herbal accent. Cutlets can be served as a standalone dish or with a side of vegetables and potatoes, complemented by sour cream sauce. It’s an ideal choice for a family dinner or cozy gathering.
