Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Mixture

  1. Combine Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked chicken, shredded cheese, breadcrumbs, grated Parmesan cheese, eggs, chopped green onions (if using), garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly combined.

Step 2: Form the Fritters

  1. Shape Fritters: With your hands, take a small portion of the mixture (about 2-3 tablespoons) and shape it into a patty. Repeat the process until all the mixture is used, placing the fritters on a plate.

Step 3: Heat the Oil

  1. Preheat the Oil: In a large skillet, heat about 1/2 inch of oil over medium heat. The oil should be hot enough that a small piece of the fritter sizzles when added.

Step 4: Fry the Fritters

  1. Cook: Carefully place a few fritters in the hot oil, making sure not to overcrowd the pan. Fry for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and crispy.
  2. Drain Excess Oil: Once cooked, transfer the fritters to a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil.

Step 5: Serve

  1. Enjoy: Serve the Cheesy Chicken Fritters warm, accompanied by your favorite dipping sauces such as ranch, barbecue, or spicy sriracha.

Tips for Perfect Cheesy Chicken Fritters

  • Use Leftover Chicken: This recipe is an excellent way to use up leftover rotisserie chicken or any cooked chicken you have on hand.
  • Add Veggies: Incorporate chopped vegetables like bell peppers or spinach into the mixture for added nutrition and flavor.
  • Baking Option: For a healthier version, consider baking the fritters. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C), place the fritters on a parchment-lined baking sheet, and bake for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden and cooked through.
