Crispy cornmeal chicken cutlets

by | Jun 27, 2025 | Meat dishes

These crispy cornmeal chicken cutlets bring a fresh twist to a classic dish. Instead of the usual breadcrumbs, these cutlets are coated in a mix of cornmeal and spices, which gives them a bold flavor and extra crunch. The outside turns golden and crispy, while the chicken stays juicy and tender inside.

This recipe is quick and easy to follow, making it great for busy weeknights or lazy weekends. The cornmeal coating adds something different without making things complicated. You can pair the cutlets with braised rice, mashed potatoes, a simple green salad, roasted vegetables, or even tuck them into a sandwich. However you serve them, they’re sure to become a go-to option when you want something tasty without a lot of fuss.

Hungarian cottage cheese

This is what Hungarian túró looks like

You often ask me what kind of cottage cheese (or curd cheese or farmer's cheese - call it what you want) I use in the recipes. In Hungary the store-bought cottage cheese is dry and crumbly as you can see in the picture. So if a recipe calls for túró, I mean this type. If you can't obtain túró, you can try to make your own from whole milk. Click on the link below.

Metric system vs cup

In Hungary metric units are in use, all the recipes on this website are based on this system, so a kitchen scale is necessary. Since I’m not familiar with cup as a measurement unit, I convert grams to cups by using an online converter. The values in brackets, therefore, are only approximate volumes, so, please, double-check them before you start cooking.
