Chopped chicken fillet cutlets with cheese are a cozy, homemade dish of European cuisine that combines the softness of chicken meat and the creamy tenderness of cheese. Their preparation doesn't require complex techniques, but the result is always delightful – a golden crust, juicy center, and rich flavor. These cutlets likely emerged as a variation of traditional meat patties where chicken fillet replaces beef, making the dish lighter and more tender. The added cheese provides extra depth of flavor. These cutlets are perfect for a family dinner and can be served with mashed potatoes or a fresh salad. They are versatile – great as a standalone dish or as a burger base. Dill adds a fresh note while spices enhance the natural juiciness of the chicken.
