Step 3
Add salt to taste, one finely chopped onion, and 1 teaspoon of chicken seasoning to the bowl with chicken.
Step 4
Add 2 tablespoons of potato starch (you can replace with wheat flour or semolina), 1 teaspoon of paprika, and mix everything thoroughly.
Step 5
In a separate small bowl, crack 1 egg, add 1 tablespoon of sour cream (15% fat), and whisk until smooth.
Step 6
Pour the egg-sour cream mixture into the chicken mixture, stir well, and refrigerate for 20-30 minutes so the mixture absorbs the flavors.

After resting, stir the chicken mixture again before shaping cutlets.

Heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil in a skillet over medium heat. Place the chicken mixture by spoonfuls into the skillet, forming cutlets of the desired size.
