chicken cutlets

**Venum** · 09-16-2006, 08:10 PM

i have been making chicken cutlets a lot lately, breading them with whole wheat crumbs and baking them in the oven. i use 1 egg to batter them and barely use half of it...are these ok for cutting?

I would only add the bread crumbs if I were bulking.

how bad is like a 1/4 cup of baked whole wheat bread crumbs baked till they are toasted??? each cutlet barely has any..not like real chicken cutlets. adds a crunch, a taste. god forbid.

I'd ditch the bread comes i'm. There is alot of thing you can do with Chicken or Chicken Breasts ...Diffrent sauces, stuff it with veggies etc...

if its a protein/carb meal go for the bread crumbs as long as your not soaking them with oil before you bake them. in another words i think they are fine as long as you count those calories toward your overall carb intake

why not use like crushed oats?

no oil at all...i spray the cooking tray with pam, and just bake em...seems pretty clean if u ask me.

oats w/ egg whites on chk breast pieces isnt bad . have a correct diffping sauce and it is awesome for a little cheater. wouldnt do it every day tho. good for mixing it up.

acutally chicken baked or grilled with oats would be a perfect pro/carb meal.

Spices are the spice of life. At least when it comes to cooking

how would chicken, oatmeal, and egg whites be a cheater?

I dont think it is.. example your eating one breast with on yolk and 3/4 cup oats..

use the 1/4 oats ,breast ,white to make the batter (cutlet)
fry with pam
then eat the remaining .5c

Pro/carb meal

How do you go about making them? I would like to try.

do you buy cutlets themselves?

Thanks.

Exactly!
You definitely aren't cheating with this meal.
