A Pozharsky cutlet (Russian: пожарская котлета, pozharskaya kotleta, plural: пожарские котлеты, pozharskie kotlety; also spelled Pojarski) is a breaded ground chicken or veal patty that is typical of Russian cuisine.[1][2][3] A distinct feature of this cutlet is adding butter to minced meat, which results in an especially juicy and tender consistency.[1][4][5][6] The dish was created in the beginning of the 19th century in Russia and later adopted by French haute cuisine.[1][2][6]
