Instructions

1 Trim the fat from the chicken thighs, then wash and pat dry with paper towels.
2 Dice half a yellow onion and saute it in a frying pan for 2 minutes until soft,
then add 2 minced garlic cloves and saute for an additional minute. Remove from
pan to cool for a few minutes.
3 Take about 1/4 of day-old french bread or 3 slices of your favorite bread and
dip it lightly in a bowl of warm milk, when the bread is almost mushy like
remove it from the bowl and squeeze out extra milk and add it to the food
grinder.
4 Using a meat grinder, grind chicken thighs, sauteed onion and garlic, and
lightly soaked bread.
5 In a large mixing bowl, add your ground chicken mixture, 2 tbsp of mayo, 1/2 cup
of water, and season with Johhnys seasoning salt, pepper, and Vegeta. Mix
everything well.
6 Using a large spoon, spoon out the meat mixture, wet your hands, and shape the
meat into round patties or oval shape depending on your liking.
7 Preheat the frying pan or a large skillet with cooking oil ( I prefer to use
avocado oil), you won't enough oil to cover the pan. Place the patties in the
frying pan, leaving a little bit of space in between, and fry the kotleti for
about 5 minutes per side on medium heat until golden brown or the internal
temperature reaches 165°.
8 Once the kotleti are cooked through, remove them from the frying pan onto a
large plate lined with a paper towel. And Enjoy!
