Ingredients
* Vegetable oil, for frying
* 1 1/2 to 2 pounds fresh cod

Chicken Cutlets
Chicken Cutlets
![](http://pakistanifoodrecipies.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/chicken-cutlet.jpg)
Ingredients:
4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 6 ounces each)
2/3 cup fine dry bread crumbs
1/3 cup freshly grated Parmesan
2 teaspoons dried basil
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper
1 egg, beaten
2 tablespoons milk
1/2 cup flour
2 to 4 tablespoons olive oil for frying
Method:
1. Rinse the chicken breasts under running water, then place them on a double layer of paper towels and blot them dry. (Be sure to wash your hands well in warm soapy water immediately after handling raw chicken; do the same for any cutting boards or utensils that the meat comes into contact with.)
2. Place 2 of the chicken breasts inside a large, heavy-duty plastic freezer bag. Partially seal the end of the bag, leaving a slight gap so air can escape. Using the smooth head of a tenderizing mallet or a rolling pin, pound the meat in even strokes, working from the center out (be careful not to tear the plastic), to a uniform thickness of about 1/3 inch. Repeat this process with the remaining chicken in a new plastic bag. Put the pounded cutlets on a plate and set them aside.
3. Combine the bread crumbs, Parmesan, basil, oregano, salt, and pepper in a shallow medium-size bowl. Stir them to mix. In a separate shallow bowl or pie plate, beat together the egg and milk. Set both of the bowls aside.
4. Spread the flour on a plate. Arrange the breading ingredients in assembly-line fashion in this order: cutlets, flour, egg mixture, crumb mixture, empty plate. Working one piece at a time, dredge both sides of the cutlet in the flour, knocking off the excess.
5. Dip both sides of the floured cutlet in the egg mixture.
6. Coat both sides of the cutlet with the crumb mixture. Set the breaded cutlet on a clean plate and repeat the process with the remaining pieces.
7. Set a large skillet over medium-high heat and pour in enough olive oil to coat the bottom of the pan, about 2 tablespoons. Heat the oil for 2 to 3 minutes, then add the cutlets. (If your pan isn’t large enough to cook 4 chicken breasts at once, cook them in batches rather than overcrowd the pan.) Fry each side for 2 1/2 to 3 minutes, turning once, until the chicken is browned and cooked through. (To test, make a small cut in the center of the meat; there shouldn’t be any traces of pink.) Remove the cutlets from the heat and serve. Makes 4 servings.
8. Make the tangy-sweet honey mustard dipping sauce: Stir together 1/4 cup deli-style mustard, 3 tablespoons sour cream, and 1 to 1 1/3 tablespoons honey, to taste.

Ingredients:
Chicken:
*500 gms boneless chicken, skinned & cut into 2? cubes
*250 gms (2 cups) yogurt / curd
*3 tbsp tandoori chicken masala
*½ tsp nutmeg powder
*salt to taste
*2 tsp mustard oil
*1 tbsp butter
*1 tsp coriander leaves, finely chopped (optional)
Parathas:
*1 ½ cup plain flour (maida)
*1 tsp oil
*1 tsp salt (to taste)
*½ cup water (as required, for kneading dough)
*3 eggs
*white oil, to fry the parathas
Assembling:
*2 large onions, finely sliced (lengthwise)
*2 green chillies, finely chopped
*tomato sauce
*chat masala
*1 lemon, halved
Method:
Chicken stuffing:

2. Sprinkle salt, lime juice and mustard oil over the chicken pieces and rub altogether.
3. Add tandoori chicken masala and the nutmeg powder.
4. Whip the yogurt & pour over the chicken cubes, add the chopped coriander leaves and mix well. Marinate for at least 30 minutes.
5. Take a non-stick pan and melt butter. Take out the chicken cubes from the marinade and fry them till tender and cooked thoroughly.
Making parathas (for roll):
1. Beat the eggs well with a little salt and keep aside.
2. Sift the flour, add salt and oil and knead to form a soft dough. Divide the dough into roundels (the roundels will be slightly bigger than those for making roti / chapatti).
3. Take a rolling board, and roll out a circular paratha (a little thicker than ordinary roti / chapati).
4. Heat tawa / griddle and place the paratha on the heated tawa / gridldle. Cook one side then flip to cook the other side.
5. Pour 1 tsp oil on the tawa / griddle and coat the parantha with the oil. Keep aside.
6. Add 1 tsp of oil again on the tawa / griddle and pour a little portion of beaten egg on the tawa / griddle. Quickly put a paratha on the egg and allow the egg to set.
7. Flip the paratha over to the other side (egg side up) and cook till both sides are evenly fried.
8. Remove the fried paratha from tawa / griddle. Keep aside.
Assembling the roll:
1. Place the paratha (egg side up) on a serving plate and lay a portion of the cooked chicken pieces in a straight line in the middle of the paratha.
2. Place sliced onions, chopped green chillies on the chicken cubes, add tomato sauce and sprinkle chat masala. Finally squeeze the lemon on the chicken cubes.
3. Roll the paratha with the chicken stuffing firmly so that the chicken cubes do not fall.
4. Wrap the roll in a tissue paper and serve hot with tomato sauce / chilli sauce.
