Herb-packed patties promise juicy makeover for chicken dinner
They are juicy, full of flavor, and simple to prepare. These delicious cheese and herb patties are a dinner recipe that will leave you with only empty plates in the kitchen.
Chicken breasts are one of the most popular choices for dinner. Instead of frying breaded cutlets or cutting meat into cubes and adding them to pasta in spinach sauce once again, try cheese and herb bites. The secret to delicious success lies in the exceptional batter.
Cheese and herb patties
Forget about dry and boring cutlets. Poultry patties in herb and cheese batter are a true feast for the palate. Tender and juicy poultry meat, wrapped in an aromatic, cheesy batter, is the ideal combination of flavor and simplicity. Thanks to the herb and cheese coating, the patties gain an appetizing golden color and a crispy texture.
The herbal marinade penetrates every piece of chicken, and the cheese wonderfully enhances the entire dish. Poultry patties in herb and cheese batter are the perfect option for a family dinner or a warm evening meal. You can pair them with your favorite side dishes. They go well with a wide variety, from classic potatoes and coleslaw to light salads and grilled vegetables.
The meat should spend at least an hour in the marinade. You can also prepare it the day before and store it in the refrigerator, so the next day you'll only need to fry it.
