Best Mexican Chicken Cutlets Recipes

MEXICAN CHICKEN CUTLETS

Steps:

• Pound chicken between wax paper to 1/4 inch thick. In small cup, combine chili powder, salt, cumin, and cayenne. Sprinkle over both sides of chicken.
• In large skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Cook chicken 2 to 3 minutes per side, until cooked through; set aside.
• Combine mayonnaise, lime peel, salsa and pepper.
• Serve mayonnaise mixture on the side as a dipping sauce for the cutlets.

CHICKEN CUTLETS MARINATED IN LIME JUICE

Steps:

• Place the chicken in a bowl or shallow dish, add the lime juice, soy sauce, and Maggi sauce, and turn to moisten evenly with the marinade. Cover the dish and refrigerate for 1 hour, turning the chicken occasionally.
• Remove the chicken from the marinade, drain well, and blot dry with paper towels. Reserve the marinade.
• In a skillet large enough to hold the cutlets in one layer, heat the oil over medium-high heat until rippling. Add the chicken and sauté, turning once, for about 3 minutes per side, or until just cooked through. If desired, transfer the cutlets to a heated platter, add the marinating liquid to the skillet, and boil over high heat for 1 minute. Pour over the chicken. Serve at once, with lime wedges.
