Mixing and Shaping the Fritters

To kick off your Cheesy Chicken Fritters adventure, follow these steps:

Preparation: Begin by preparing all the ingredients according to the table sheet format.

Combining the Mix: In a mixing bowl, add the ground chicken, cheddar cheese, finely chopped onion, minced garlic cloves, and fresh parsley. These ingredients form the foundation of your fritters’ flavor profile.

Binding Agent: Incorporate the breadcrumbs and crack in the egg. The egg acts as a binding agent, ensuring that your fritters hold their shape during cooking.

Season to Perfection: Sprinkle in salt and pepper to taste. This step is pivotal in elevating the overall taste of your fritters.

Mix and Mingle: Gently combine all the ingredients using your hands. Feel free to get a little messy – it’s all part of the culinary fun!

Shaping the Fritters: Take a portion of the mixture and shape it into a flattened round. Repeat this process until you’ve used up all the mixture.

Frying to Golden Perfection

Heating the Oil: In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Ensure the oil is hot enough for frying.

Frying Process: Carefully place the shaped fritters into the hot oil. Cook them until they turn golden brown on each side, ensuring they are cooked through.

Drain and Rest: Once cooked, transfer the fritters to a paper towel-lined plate. This helps to remove excess oil and allows the fritters to cool slightly.
