Chicken Cutlets

My absolute favorite finger food. Growing up mom always made beef cutlets but lately I am favoring chicken cutlets more than beef. I absolutely love to have pipping HOT chicken cutlets with some Maggie Ketchup.

• Add chicken pieces, mix well, cover and cook until it’s well cooked. (No need to add water)
• In the mean time cook potatoes and mash well
