Good day, Friends! In today's recipe, I will tell you how I cook diet minced meat, why I cook it at all, and not buy it, and I will share a cool cutlet recipe.
So, minced meat in a healthy diet is preferably low-fat, preferably from pure meat without large fat layers, skin, and God knows what other production “improvers” (glutamates, starch, etc.). This is where the answer to the question “Why not buy minced meat in the store?” follows. If you know a butcher who prepares such clean minced meat, then you are a lucky person. I don’t have such an acquaintance nearby, so I buy fillet and make minced meat from it myself.
What meat for minced meat to choose?
First, we prefer lean poultry. First of all, it's chicken and turkey. Note that turkey (breast) fillets are generally lean and are more likely to be dry after cooking. Therefore, I recommend combining the brisket with the thigh part.
Secondly, beef and veal. Veal is more dietary than beef, but also more expensive. Therefore, these two types of meat can also be mixed.
Thirdly, horse meat, elk. These two types of meat are quite rare, but very tasty. They are also low in calories. Personal recommendation: be sure to try the elk meat (there are definitely some in the meat market). It turns out gorgeous if you just bake it in the oven.
Actually, everything. I don't eat lamb or pork. And not just because they are fat. I just don't like this meat. But if you like these varieties, then feel free to add them to minced meat. Among lamb and pork, lean parts can also be found.
How to cook minced meat?
- Since we prepare minced meat from lean and dietary meat, we need a “juicy safety net” so that the finished dish is not dry, easy to chew and requires a large amount of sauce. To do this, I have a few secrets:
- Mix and match meats. Chicken + veal, turkey + beef, veal + horse meat, turkey + chicken, veal + beef. You can make minced meat from 2, 3, 4 types of meat. I really like chicken fillet (2 parts) + veal fillet (1 part).
- Onion. Be sure to add the onion to the minced meat. Twist it along with the meat and then mix well. For 1 kg of meat, I can take 2 or even 3 large onions (100 g each).
- Soy sauce. 2-3 tbsp 1 kg of meat will be enough. As with marinades, the sauce also works great here.
- Spank the minced meat. Yes Yes. After mixing the minced meat with onions, soy sauce, salt and spices (if using), roll it into a ball and drop it from a height of 20-25 cm into a bowl. It is necessary to thoroughly crush it to the bottom, so do not spare your strength. And so 10 times. You can additionally slap the meat bun with your palm.
Everything, super-duper minced meat is ready. Now I’ll tell you how I make the simplest, but always delicious cutlets out of it.
Healthy chicken and veal cutlets
Ingredients
- Minced meat (I have chicken + veal, 2: 1) - 900 gr
- Egg - 1 pc.
- Carrots - 2 pcs
- Onion - 1 pc.

- Water - 1.5 cups
- Mixture of Italian herbs - 1 tsp
- Salt - 1 tsp

- We cut the onion into cubes, three carrots on a grater.
- Mix tomato paste with water.
- A non-stick frying pan must be heated, if necessary, greased with a small amount of oil (coconut, olive, sesame).
- We roll minced meat balls and send them to the pan. Fry on both sides until golden brown (about 3-4 minutes).

Enjoy your meal! Live healthy, eat healthy!
P.S. The recipe for pickled carrots, which is in the plate in the photo, will be coming soon. 
A common myth that proper nutrition is necessarily tasteless, but healthy, is easily dispelled after cooking chopped chicken breast cutlets. The traditional recipe - with a bun and Provencal mayonnaise - is easily transformed into a healthy dish. It is enough to apply some rules of PP.
The breast is not always dry - you need to cook it properly. Everyone likes these cutlets, the breast is juicy, soft. They are appropriate even on the festive table - they look beautiful, melt in your mouth.
For cooking you will need:
Greek yogurt can be substituted for homemade mayonnaise. In this case, chopped chicken breast cutlets become more tender, juicier. With PP, “evil” is not mayonnaise itself, but additives: modified starch, monosodium glutamate, stabilizers.
The nutritional value
The calculation of calories is given in the basic recipe. If you change yogurt for homemade mayonnaise, the calorie content will change. From 500 grams of breast, an average of 10-12 cutlets is obtained, respectively, one cutlet is about 100 kilocalories.
| Product | Weight, g | Proteins, g | Fats, g | Carbohydrates, g | kcal |
| Chicken breast | 500 | 118,0 | 9,50 | 2,00 | 565,00 |
| Potato starch | 5 | 0,01 | 0,00 | 3,98 | 15,00 |
| Egg | 170 | 21,59 | 18,53 | 1,19 | 266,90 |
| Olive oil | 20 | 0,00 | 19,96 | 0,00 | 179,60 |
| Onion | 50 | 0,70 | 0,00 | 5,20 | 23,50 |
| Greek yogurt | 200 | 10,00 | 6,40 | 7,00 | 132,00 |
| Total: | 945,00 | 150,29 | 54,39 | 19,37 | 1182,00 |
| Total per 100 g: | 100,00 | 15,90 | 5,76 | 2,05 | 125,08 |
If you cook chopped chicken breast cutlets in a steamed multicooker, the calorie content will decrease due to the vegetable oil that is used for frying.
Step by step cooking recipe
- The chicken breast is cut into cubes, no larger than 0.5 cm. To cut it more conveniently, you need to put the pieces in the freezer for 30-60 minutes. They will not freeze, but only “grab”, after which it is much easier.
- Add yogurt (homemade mayonnaise), spices to taste, mix well. Set aside for 30-50 minutes to soak the chicken - this relieves the breast meat from dryness.
Chop the onion as finely as possible, add to the meat. If the attitude to the onion is specific, it can be replaced with garlic.
- Add 1 tablespoon of potato starch - it gives the cutlets splendor, softness. Starch can be replaced with flour, but the taste will also change. With flour, they get a denser consistency.
- Add eggs. An important nuance: eggs can be added from 1 to 4 - in this case, the final appearance of the cutlets and the cooking method will be different:
- 1 egg: classic cutlets, rolled in breadcrumbs or flour, fried in a pan or steamed.
- 2 eggs: it looks like meatballs - the shape does not hold, it is rather a tender meat “pancake” than a cutlet. Fry in a pan.
- 3-4 eggs: thin consistency, fried in a small amount of oil, like pancakes.
- Mix the minced meat well, in case there are 4 eggs, a watery mixture is obtained.
Minced meat can be seasoned with herbs: dill, parsley, finely chopped celery, cilantro - to taste. Some recipes call for the addition of grated soft cheese.
- Heat the frying pan, pour vegetable oil into it. It is very important that the pan is hot, especially if more than 2 eggs are added - this way the cutlets “grab” immediately, do not spread over the pan.
Serve with any side dish: from vegetables to pasta. If you cook mashed potatoes seasoned with butter for the rest of the family with chopped chicken cutlets, the family will not even notice that mom strictly monitors her diet.
Instead of P.S.
Diet food should be delicious. Food is the strongest antidepressant, and, while enjoying it, the brain understands at the level of sensations that you do not limit yourself in anything. On the contrary, delicious food is an encouragement to a healthy lifestyle, proper nutrition.
Therefore, cook tender cutlets from chopped chicken breast - it's tasty and healthy!
