PRO Tips For Learning How to Fillet Chicken Breast with a Knife
➡️ A kitchen-savvy person might smile when seeing the title of this video tutorial – “How to Fillet Chicken Breast for Schnitzel and Grill the Easy Way in 5 Minutes”, but someone who is just starting to learn the secrets of gastronomy will definitely want to know how to cut a chicken breast into fillets for schnitzel, grill, or another recipe calling for chicken breast fillets.
➡️ If you are going to use a smaller chicken breast (150 g/5.5 oz maximum weight), I recommend cutting the chicken breast just in two halves, without making fillets. That’s because when you make very thin fillets, they will dry and the grill or schnitzel won’t be juicy at all but dry.
➡️ If you fillet turkey breast or a large chicken breast, you need to cut 2-3-4 fillets, depending on the breast size. Remember that too thick fillets will cause schnitzel to remain raw inside or with the outside fried in excess.
➡️ Before grilling or frying a schnitzel, I recommend seasoning with salt the chicken or turkey breast fillets and waiting for about 30 minutes. The salt will be absorbed in the meat and the grill, respectively the schnitzel will be much tastier. Proceed the same with the pepper (I recommend using white pepper) if you want a spicier taste. Other powdered spices can be added in the same way. Enjoy learning how to fillet chicken breast for schnitzel and more!
