It was written on the package that it contains four special leaves into which you need to put chicken fillet for subsequent frying. It’s nice that this time there will be only two items in the list of ingredients - the chicken fillet itself and the indicated leaves from the bag
Ingredients:
Chicken fillet – 4 pieces
Maggi leaves – 4 leaves
You can cook from ready-made chicken fillet, this will speed up the cooking. But fillet is noticeably more expensive than breast. In addition, the skin of the breast and the sternum are used to cook porridge for the tailed lover of delicious food. So wash the breasts and cut out the fillets.
According to the proven method, we put the fillets into plastic bags and beat the fillets
Unfold the leaf and place the fillet on half of the leaf
Cover the fillet with the other half of the sheet and press the fillet sheet with your hand. Place the fillet in a preheated DRY frying pan and fry for 6-7 minutes on one side
Turn the fillet leaves over to the other side and fry them for 6-7 minutes.
It turns out such a wonderful fillet

Hello!
A few words about the purchase:
I bought Maggi on Second for tender chicken breast fillet with garlic and herbs in one of the stores of the Euroopt chain.
Price at the end of July 2018 was 1.52 Belarusian rubles (discount on a discount card 0.03 Belarusian rubles). In the end I gave it away 1.49 Belarusian rubles (which is about $0.75).
Composition of Maggi seasoning on Second for tender chicken breast fillet with garlic and herbs specified by the manufacturer:
Dried vegetables (garlic (17%) (garlic pieces (12%), garlic powder), onion, tomato), sunflower oil, iodized salt(salt, potassium iodate), cooking oil (from palm oil), sugar, dried herbs (2.7%) (parsley (2%), savory, basil (0.34%)), ground spices (2.5%) (black pepper (0.66%), curry, coriander, nutmeg, turmeric), dried garlic concentrate (garlic extract, maltodextrin), corn starch, acidity regulator (citric acid).
The product may contain milk, celery, gluten.
In general, one could say that the composition is good, if there were no palm oil. Frankly speaking, I missed it while studying the ingredients in the store.
Unlike those Maggi seasonings for the main course, which I have already tried, there is a nuance here. Seasoning with oil is placed on special frying sheets:
Those. the sheets are soaked in oil and sprinkled with dry seasoning on top.

How to cook with Maggi for Second for tender chicken breast fillet with garlic and herbs and what is required for this?
To prepare you will need: chicken breast - 4 pcs. (600 g).
Since chickens vary in weight, I didn’t focus on the number of chicken breasts, but on the weight of the chicken breast and the number of people I was cooking for.
I took 1 chicken breast from a cut up chicken. I usually divide it into 2 chicken fillets. The weight of 2 chicken fillets was 400 grams.
100 grams of chicken each (for 4 people) is quite normal for our family. Children may eat a little less.
How to cook?
1. Beat chicken breasts to a thickness of 1.5 - 2 cm.
Before pounding the chicken breasts, I advise you to pierce them all over with a fork. This way they will be even more juicy and tender.
2. Unfold the roasting sheet and place one chicken breast on half of it. Cover with the other half of the sheet.
Press the wrapped breast with your hand.
The most important thing is not to forget to press the frying sheets with your hand:
- this way you will better saturate the chicken breast with seasoning;
- When frying, the sheets will not open.
Before I started preparing the chicken fillet, I set the frying pan to heat up.
3. Without adding oil, heat a frying pan and place the wrapped breast on it.
I didn't add any oil to the pan. I immediately put 2 sheets of chicken fillet in it. My pan doesn't fit anymore. Its diameter = 24 cm.
4. Cook over low heat for gas stove or on medium power on an electric stove for 5-7 minutes on each side. If the spices start to burn, reduce the heat and cook until done.
I kept the chicken sheets on each side for about 6-7 minutes. When the sheets are initially laid, nothing burns. A little oil may leak out when you turn the sheets over. Therefore, I advise you to turn them over as quickly and carefully as possible. Then you won't splatter anything and nothing will burn.
After the first 2 sheets were done, I rinsed the pan, heated it, and repeated with the remaining 2 sheets.
As a result, I received the following portion:
What did I like about the Maggi seasoning on Second for tender chicken breast fillet with garlic and herbs?
- The dish is very simple and easy to prepare. Any novice housewife can cope.
- Requires minimal cooking time.
- The fillet turns out juicy and tender. Personally, I felt the most of the seasonings was garlic (but without later turning into a fire-breathing dragon).
TOTAL: I can recommend Maggi seasoning on Second for tender chicken breast fillet with garlic and herbs as an interesting and simple option for preparing juicy chicken fillet. The only downside for me is the presence of palm oil.
