Today I invite you to try making delicious muffins with chicken and cheese. This interesting appetizer is perfect for a buffet table and will decorate the holiday table.

The first time I tried snack muffins was at a party. Later, I found out the recipe from a friend and now I cook them quite often. Before this, I made muffins with chicken and cheese using kefir, but today we will use milk. It turns out very tasty, aromatic and satisfying. Additionally, you can add olives, olives, ham or mushrooms to the filling.

Ingredients:

• 200 g wheat flour;
• 100 ml sunflower oil
• 100 ml milk
• 3 eggs
• 10 g baking powder
• 250 g chilled chicken fillet
• 100 g hard cheese
• several green onions
• 0.5 tsp. salt
• 0.25 tsp black pepper
• 0.5 tsp. dried oregano

How to make chicken and cheese muffins:

First, wash and remove films from the chicken fillet. Then boil it in cold water as a whole piece to keep the meat juicy. About 20 minutes after the water boils, the fillet will be ready. Remove it from the broth and cool to room temperature.

In the meantime, prepare the dough. To do this, mix milk and vegetable oil in a deep bowl. You can use either sunflower or olive oil, depending on your taste.

Then beat three eggs into the mixture. Combine the ingredients together using a whisk.

To make snack muffins with chicken and cheese fluffy and airy, add baking powder to the dough.

Grate the hard cheese on a fine grater and add to the dough.

Cut the meat into medium cubes after it has cooled to room temperature. Chop the green onion feathers into thin rings. Add the crushed ingredients to the dough, following the recipe for muffins with chicken and cheese.

Lastly add salt and spices.

Mix the dough thoroughly. It should become thick and homogeneous.

Then fill the metal muffin tin with paper cups. Pour the dough into them, filling the molds halfway.

Cute crumb muffins are a culinary invention that will make you fall in love with American cuisine. Our family is addicted to these hearty muffins, so I strive to make them as healthy as possible: add a minimum of flour, as many healthy fruits, nuts and even vegetables as possible. Today I'm going to talk about how I make hearty chicken and cheese muffins. The recipe is detailed and step-by-step, as always. I think you will definitely like it!
If you like hearty oven-baked dishes, be sure to take note of the following recipes:

Ingredients:

• Boiled chicken fillet - 200 g.
• Hard cheese - 80 g (the variety does not matter)
• Olive oil (can be replaced with sunflower oil) - 100 ml.
• Milk - 100 ml.
• Wheat flour - 250 g.
• Chicken eggs - 3 pcs.
• Baking powder - 1 sachet (10 g)
• Salt - a pinch
• Black pepper to taste

This recipe for snack muffin dough is basic, you can make any filling. In the fall, muffins literally ask for ripe vegetables. These small muffins look very appetizing and are also really healthy: they have very little flour, and you can use whole grains, bran, flakes, and nuts as additives.

How to cook:

In terms of preparation, the secret of muffins is to mix the liquid and dry ingredients separately. The second trick is to do as little kneading as possible when combining the ingredients. Literally three or four movements and place it in the molds. It’s okay if you see small lumps of flour - everything will bake perfectly in the oven. The fact is that if the dough is kneaded thoroughly, it will become heavy, will not rise well in the oven, and will lose its juiciness.

Boil the chicken fillet in lightly peppered and salted water for 15 minutes. For chicken meat, this time is enough to cook well and not turn into rubber.

In a deep bowl, beat 3 eggs.


Add vegetable oil (100 ml.) Use olive oil or any other vegetable oil. For example, corn dough works very well.

And then milk (100 ml) goes into the bowl. Let me remind you that all ingredients should be at room temperature, so if the milk is cold, warm it up a little.

Salt and pepper the batter and add other favorite spices to taste.

Sift flour (250 g) into a separate bowl.

Combine flour with baking powder (11 g)

Mix the dry ingredients using a whisk or mixer at the lowest speed. This is a very important step that many people skip. If the baking powder is mixed unevenly into the dough, the baked goods will not rise well.

Add flour mixture to liquid ingredients.

Finely chop the chicken fillet. Grate the cheese on a medium-mesh grater. You can use several types of cheese, the taste will be more interesting. A piece that has already weathered a little in the refrigerator will also work (you won’t feel this in baked goods).

I love snack muffins with a splash of olives. If you like their taste, you can also use olives in the recipe.

Buy olives with pits - they are much more aromatic and tastier. Getting rid of the pit is not difficult: you need to place the olive on a cutting board and lightly press the fruit with your palm, the pit will pop out on its own.

Mix the resulting dough carefully. Do not use a mixer! Only a spatula or spoon should be in your hands at this moment.

The dough has the consistency of thick sour cream. If it's too runny, add a little flour; if it's too thick, add a little milk. If you follow the recipe exactly (use scales, measuring cups and spoons), you won't have to adjust the thickness.

Place 1 tbsp in muffin cups. heaping spoonful of dough. Look at the photo to see how much dough is needed for one serving.

Muffins with chicken and cheese are baked in the oven at 180 C for 30 minutes.

The oven must be preheated!

Ready-made muffins can be served with your favorite sauce or as a hearty addition to coffee or tea.

Bon appetit!

For all the sweet muffin lovers, I recorded a video recipe and posted it on our You Tube channel, I hope you like it! Enjoy watching!

If you are watching your diet and trying to lose weight before the onset of the swimming season, then you will have to forget about muffins (in their classic form) for a while, or replace them with this unusual analogue. Chicken muffins consist of minced chicken and are complemented with spices, or vegetables, herbs, bacon, and cheese. The finished product contains a minimum of carbohydrates and a maximum of protein.

Chicken muffins with cheese - recipe

If you want to diversify the taste of chicken, then in addition to spices, you can use cheese. Different types of cheese will give different flavors to a dish.

Ingredients:

• chicken - 380 g;
• eggs - 2 pcs.;
• dried onion - 1 teaspoon;
• - 1/2 teaspoon;
• grated cheese - 85 g.

Preparation

Turn the chicken into mince and beat in the eggs. Add the spices from the list, followed by the finely chopped celery stalk. The final touch is grated cheese. Beat the finished mixture thoroughly with a blender to obtain a paste-like mass. Next, distribute the minced chicken into six wells of the muffin tin and bake everything for half an hour at 180.

Chicken muffins with mushrooms in the oven

Ingredients:

• cottage cheese - 65 g;
• grated cheese - 35 g;
• a handful of olives;
• champignons - 115 g;
• egg - 1 pc.;
• dried garlic and oregano - 1 teaspoon each;
• chicken fillet - 740 g;
• a pinch of paprika.

Preparation

After cutting the mushrooms, fry them, seasoning with herbs and salt.

To make the mixture more homogeneous, it is better to use a powerful blender. Whisk together cheese, chicken and cottage cheese. Salt everything and mix with the egg. Add mushroom pieces, a pinch of salt and paprika. Place the mixture, which has a mousse-like consistency, into six wells of the mold and place in the oven for half an hour at 180. Minced chicken muffins can be served hot or reheated before a meal; this will not affect the consistency of the dish.

If you have boiled chicken at your disposal, then you can also use it for muffins, using this recipe as a basis.

Ingredients:

Preparation

Separate the chicken into fibers and place them in the wells of a muffin tin. Whisk the melted butter with the egg and cream, then add the flour/baking powder mixture. Pour the finished dough over the chicken and bake everything for 20 minutes at 180 degrees. Sprinkle with parsley to finish.

I suggest you diversify your homemade chicken dishes. You can bake very tender and juicy muffins from chicken breast. This hot appetizer is quite simple to prepare. If not everyone knows what muffins are, then these are small portioned cupcakes. Usually, in our understanding, a cupcake is a large sweet pie, like a sponge cake, which is served with tea. But chicken muffins with cheese are small meat muffins that can also be served with tea, or as a cold appetizer.

Muffins with cheese and chicken are a very tasty and satisfying dish; they cannot be called baked goods and cannot be compared with a meat salad. You will spend very little time cooking, and the result will be amazing.

The maximum volume of ready-made muffin tins is 100 ml, there is also less - 50-80 ml. Therefore, you will not cut the finished products, but will end up with several ruddy meat muffins, which can be eaten both hot and cold with various side dishes and sauces.

Taste Info Buffet appetizers / Cupcakes

Ingredients for 2-3 servings:

• chicken fillet 250 g;
• hard cheese 70 g;
• processed cheese 0.5 pack;

How to make chicken muffins with cheese

To make muffins, use chilled chicken breast. The meat in the breast is tender and without streaks, it is perfect for this appetizer. Some housewives prepare this dish from boiled chicken breast.

Hard cheese will add piquancy to chicken muffins. Give preference to aromatic varieties, such as “royal” or “radomer”. In addition to hard cheese, I add half of the processed cheese to the muffins.

Chicken fillet for muffins can be chopped with a knife or passed through a meat grinder. Place the finished minced meat into a bowl.

Pour two chicken eggs into the meat in a bowl.

Pour a little milk (50 ml) or cream into the minced meat to make the muffins juicy in taste. Add two tablespoons of flour or semolina there.

Grate half the hard cheese and add to the dough. Cut the rest of the hard and processed cheese into small cubes and also add to the dough. Use dill and garlic as desired.

To make the muffins airy, you can add baking powder to the dough; half a teaspoon will be enough. Finally add a spoonful of olive oil, salt and spices to taste.

Place the finished chicken dough into silicone molds. If the molds are metal, then I recommend lining the bottom with parchment or grease them with vegetable oil so that the muffins do not stick.

In an oven preheated to 190 degrees, bake chicken muffins with cheese for 20 minutes. You may need to bake the cupcakes a little longer, depending on the size of your pans. To check the readiness of this hot snack, pierce them with a wooden skewer.

Chicken muffins are served warm or cold on a plate with lettuce leaves or fresh vegetable salad. Sweet and sour berry sauce or sauce based on mayonnaise or sour cream is suitable as a sauce for this dish.

You can add other products to the muffin dough; in addition to chicken and cheese, this dish will go well with mushrooms, cottage cheese, and grated zucchini. We previously offered a recipe.

These chicken muffins are convenient to take with you to nature or to school as a snack, because they are very tasty when cooled.

Muffins with chicken and cheese are a real find. Especially for those who love to cook or just eat delicious food. This bake will prove again that muffins are not always sweet.

We will prepare four different versions of chicken and cheese muffins. The first recipe will be a classic, then mushrooms will be added, then tomatoes and then there will be zucchini. They are all delicious and unique in their own way. Therefore, it is simply impossible to single out just one recipe. Here you need to try everything at once.

The good thing about this type of baking is that it is convenient to serve both cold and hot. You can also take it with you as a snack or a full lunch (with the same composition of products). Muffins will be very useful on a picnic or on a trip.

This is exactly what even kids will like. For those who do not like boiled meat and cheese, tiny muffins will seem something unusual, and therefore appetizing and tasty. But to be sure of this, you will have to prepare them for yourself and your family. Be sure that you will like it and you will make these cupcakes dozens of times.

Instead of boiled chicken fillet, you can add smoked breast or ham. You can also fry the chicken in a pan with spices instead of boiling it.

Do not fill the molds more than two-thirds full with dough, as the dough will rise and easily flow out over the edges. Moreover, it will be baked in this form. It's not the most appetizing sight.

Meat can be cut not only into cubes. You can chop it into cubes or grind it in a blender/meat grinder. The result will be a slightly different consistency and the cake will be more homogeneous, without pieces of food. The cheese can also be ground into crumbs in a blender or grated.

If there is no milk in the refrigerator, you can always replace it with kefir or fermented baked milk. But in this case, you need to fill the capsules no more than halfway.

You can add various spices to the dough to taste. For example, you can add sweet paprika, or, conversely, hot pepper. You can use various mixtures of herbs or single herbs, such as rosemary, marjoram, and basil. You can add fresh herbs to taste.

Chicken and cheese muffins are like a small but satisfying lunch. They can be served for breakfast and even dinner. This is a versatile baked product that we highly recommend trying as soon as possible.
