Yield: 2 persons ( make about 10-12 pcs)
Ingredients for Chicken Fritters:
340g chicken breasts, minced ( I blend the meat but not to smooth)
1 large egg
3 tbsp mayonnaise
20g all-purpose flour
50 mozzarella cheese, shredded ( Mozarella will be great, but I used Cheddar because that’s what in my fridge)
1 Tbsp chopped fresh dill (optional) – But it will enhance the flavor.
1/4 tsp salt or to taste
a few dashes of black pepper
1-2 Tbsp oil to saute
Ingredients for Garlic Aioli Dip (Optional)
3 tbsp mayonnaise
1 tbsp minced garlic
1/4 Tbsp lemon juice
1/8 tsp salt
A few dashes of black pepper
Method:
1. Combine all the ingredients for chicken fritters, except for the oil.
2. Heat a large non-stick pan over medium heat and add 1-2 Tbsp oil.
3. When the oil is hot, add the chicken mixture a heaping Tablespoon at a time.
4. Slightly flatten out the tops with the back of your spoon and sauté uncovered 3-4 min on the first side, then flip and saute 3 min on the second side or until outsides are golden brown, and chicken is fully cooked through.
4. Repeat with remaining fritters adding more oil as needed.
5. To make the aioli (if using), combine all ingredients in a small bowl or measuring cup and stir together until smooth.
Tips:
1. To test for doneness, cut a fritter in half, and the chicken should be completely white inside.
2. If your chicken patty is browning too fast, adjust your heat down.
