1
Dry mushrooms for cooking chicken cutlets previously soak in water. After a few hours, remove them and wring them out. If you decided to use fresh forest mushrooms or champignons for cooking cutlets, just wash them and clean them.

Cut the mushrooms into thin slices and mix them with finely chopped onions. Fry the mixture in vegetable oil until cooked.

Separate the chicken meat from the bones and cut it into pieces. Onion, divide into several parts. In this form, these products will be more convenient to lay in a meat grinder.

Cut off the crust from the loaf, and cut the remaining crumb into large pieces, soak them in water for 5 minutes, then squeeze them well.

Now make minced meat from prepared foods. Grind chicken, bread crumbs and onions with a meat grinder. Mix the resulting mixture thoroughly until a homogeneous consistency, add salt and pepper to it.
6
Proceed to the formation of cutlets. Make a round cake out of minced meat, and put mushroom stuffing in its center. Connect the edges of the tortilla. In order to give the cutlets a neat, oblong shape, carefully roll them in their hands.
7
Fry meatballs on both sides over high heat. Then cover the pan with a lid, reduce heat and fry the meatballs until cooked.
note
Chicken meatballs with mushrooms can be cooked in the oven.
White bread as a part of forcemeat is necessary so that juice does not leave the cutlets during frying. Moreover, bread should be soaked in water, and not in milk. Milk protein coagulates, and the patties are less juicy.
Useful advice
If you are worried that the cutlets will fall apart, add a raw egg to the minced chicken. But be aware that in this case cutlets will turn out to be less soft and juicy.
