Crispy Chicken Croquettes
Ingredients:
- 2 cups cooked chicken, finely shredded
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup milk
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
- Salt and black pepper to taste
- 1 cup breadcrumbs
- 2 large eggs, beaten
- Vegetable oil for frying
Cooking Steps:
Step 1: In a saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Add flour and cook, stirring constantly, for 1-2 minutes to create a roux.
Step 2: Gradually whisk in milk, ensuring no lumps form. Cook the mixture until it thickens to a smooth consistency.
Step 3: Add shredded chicken, garlic powder, onion powder, dried thyme, salt, and black pepper to the sauce. Stir until the chicken is evenly coated and the mixture is well combined.
Step 4: Remove the chicken mixture from heat and let it cool to room temperature.
Step 5: Once cooled, shape the chicken mixture into croquettes, forming cylinders or oval shapes.
Step 6: In separate bowls, place breadcrumbs and beaten eggs.
Step 7: Roll each croquette in the beaten eggs, ensuring it is fully coated, then coat it in breadcrumbs, pressing gently to adhere.
Step 8: Heat vegetable oil in a deep fryer or skillet to 350°F (175°C).
Step 9: Fry the coated chicken croquettes in batches until golden brown and crispy. This should take about 3-4 minutes per batch.
Step 10: Using a slotted spoon, remove the fried croquettes and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to absorb excess oil.
Step 11: Allow the Crispy Chicken Croquettes to cool slightly before serving.
Step 12: Serve the croquettes hot with your favorite dipping sauce.
Delight your guests or treat yourself to the delightful crunch and creamy filling of these Crispy Chicken Croquettes – a perfect appetizer or snack for any occasion.
