Crispy Chicken Patties
Perfect for Appetizers, Lunch or Dinner. Made Easy Using Rotisserie or other Cooked Chicken.
Equipment
- Mixing Bowl
- large skillet
Ingredients
- 2-3 cups cooked chicken diced (I use rotisserie chicken)
- 1 large egg
- 2 green onions, chopped fine
- 1 celery stalk, chopped fine
- 1/2 cup saltine crackers (processed into fine crumbs)
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp garlic powder
- 1/4 tsp onion powder
- 1/4 tsp black pepper
- 1/8 tsp dried thyme
- 2 tsp dried parsley
- 1 cup panko crumbs (or bread/cracker crumbs)
- 1 cup cooking oil (vegetable or canola)
Instructions
- In a medium bowl mix together using a fork, diced cooked chicken, egg, green onions, celery, salt, garlic powder, onion powder, back pepper, dried thyme, parsley and cracker crumbs.
- Place some mixture into a 1/3 measuring cup and pack tightly. Place into your hand and form a 1/4 inch thick round patties, keeping mixture tightly packed. This amount of mixture makes 6 patties.
- Place panko crumbs into a shallow dish and roll each patty into crumbs to coat entirely. Place each disk on a parchment lined sheet pan. Finish preparing rest of patties.
- In a large skillet bring 1 cup of cooking oil to a medium high heat (350 degrees).
- Carefully place in chicken patties in hot oil and cook on one side for 4 or so minutes until golden brown. Flip patties over and cook an additional 3-4 minutes until golden brown. Remove patties and place on a wire rack placed on a sheet pan to help drain any excess grease and keep crisp.
- Cool for a few minutes and enjoy.
Looks absolutely fantastic! Great idea especially for any leftover chicken or turkey!!
I bet with Thanksgiving coming up here in Canada, these would be great with leftover turkey.
