Indian Chicken Cutlet recipe is an amazingly delicious and tasty appetiser recipe that would be a perfect party food.
The kids will simply love these indian chicken cutlet recipe and would come back asking for more. You can even pack them for the school lunch box.
The beauty and the simplicity of this indian chicken cutlet recipe is that it can be made before hand and refrigerated and fried when you need.
In that way, you can save an awful lot of precious time in the early morning rush. Roll them up in a pita bread with some salad and sauce and bingo, an easy wrap is ready to go.
You can serve this with ketchup or with the mint yogurt chutney. I love the mint yogurt chutney with the indian chicken cutlets. I feel it simply elevated the taste of the cutlets to an another level.
Though I have already shared the mint yogurt chutney, let me again write it here for your convenience, as I feel the indian chicken cutlet recipe is pretty much incomplete without it.
The use of potato, egg and bread crumbs help the indian chicken cutlet recipe to hold together.
I always like to refrigerate all of my koftas and tikkis for at least some time as it helps to hold them together better.
You can even dip them in the batter and roll them in bread crumbs and then refrigerate it for sometime. If not, just remember to refrigerate at least before making the shapes.
