Chicken zrazy with mushroom filling is a traditional dish of Belarusian cuisine that harmoniously combines the tenderness of chicken mince and the aroma of forest mushrooms. Zrazy originated as a convenient way to combine meat and filling while preserving juiciness and rich flavor. This recipe uses milk-soaked mince and bread that adds softness to the texture. The mushroom filling with onions and herbs adds depth of flavor, while the breading creates an appetizing golden crust. The finished zrazy are juicy inside and crispy outside, perfectly paired with mashed potatoes or fresh vegetables. This dish not only delights with its taste but also creates an atmosphere of home comfort, reminiscent of traditional family lunches. A great option for those who appreciate hearty and aromatic dishes with a national character.
