Chicken Kheema Cutlet / Minced Chicken Patties

Chicken kheema cutlet is crispy from outside and delicious inside and all time favorite for kids. It can be prepared as quick finger food for parties. My both kids love this chicken kheema cutlet. It can be prepared with shredded chicken but I prefer minced chicken over shredded chicken.

I prepared these cutlets on valentine's day for my two little valentines. I am posting the recipe after three days.
