Tricks of cooking chicken breast cutlets with mayonnaise - useful tips
Be sure to beat the stuffing. Pieces of chicken better grab, the stuffing will be more uniform, and the burgers will turn out juicier and more tender.
If you can not grate the melted cheese, put it in a freezer for a couple of minutes and it will stop sticking to the working surface of the grater.
White breading is better to cook yourself. You can stale, well dried up, grate the bread on a large grater or twist in a meat grinder.
