Recipe Card
Chicken cutlets with pumpkin
Description
Thanks to the pumpkin, the chopped chicken fillet in the cutlets will be filled with juice, soften and acquire an appetizing color. Such cutlets will become even tastier and more interesting if you add canned corn and green onions to the mince. You can do without a side dish or serve, for example, dietary bulgur or quinoa. To reduce the number of calories, replace sour cream with natural yogurt and do not fry the cutlets in oil, but bake them in the oven.
