A fresh twist on dinner: Try these gyros chicken cutlets

When I don’t know what to prepare for dinner, it’s a sign that it’s time for delicious chicken cutlets. You can use both fillets and thigh meat. The latter makes the cutlets juicier and more flavourful. You don’t have to worry about deboning, as more and more stores are now offering just the meat without bones. An interesting addition of vegetables will attract even those who previously declared they weren’t very hungry.

Instead of traditional cutlets, I propose a light and aromatic alternative—gyros chicken cutlets. This dish will delight with its taste and simplicity of preparation. Favourite vegetables, juicy meat, and a cheesy topping make a delicious dinner idea. It works great not only for everyday meals but also for more festive occasions.

Ingredients:

                                      
• 4 pieces of meat from chicken thighs,
• 2 pickles,
• 1 red bell pepper,
• 1 yellow bell pepper,
• 250 grams of yellow cheese,
• 3 tablespoons of mayonnaise,
• 3 tablespoons of spicy ketchup,
• a pinch of salt,
• favourite gyros seasoning,
• a bit of oil for frying.

Instructions:

                              
1. Gently pound the meat. If you are using fillets instead of thighs, cut them crosswise into two pieces.
2. Then sprinkle them with salt and gyros seasoning.
3. Fry on both sides in hot oil until golden brown. Do this over medium heat. This will seal the meat and keep it perfectly juicy.
4. Dice the pickles and bell peppers finely.
5. Add mayonnaise and ketchup to them. Mix thoroughly.
6. Place the fried meat on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. On each piece of meat, place a portion of vegetable sauce.
7. Generously sprinkle everything with grated yellow cheese.
8. Put it in an oven preheated to 190°C for about 40 minutes. The cheese should melt beautifully, and the meat should be juicy and full of flavour.

Serve with your favourite sides, such as rice or fries. Enjoy your meal!
