Crispy Leftover Chicken Croquettes

Ingredients Needed

• 2 tablespoons olive oil, divided

• 2 cups diced onion

• 3 cups cooked, finely chopped chicken meat

• 1 ½ cups seasoned dry bread crumbs

• 2 large eggs, lightly beaten

• 1 large egg, lightly beaten (Optional)

• 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley

• 1 teaspoon salt

• ½ teaspoon ground black pepper

Instructions

Prepare all the necessary ingredients before starting.

In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken, breadcrumbs, and two eggs. Add the sautéed onion and mix until well incorporated. If the mixture is too dry to form patties, add the remaining egg. Season with parsley, salt, and pepper, and stir to combine.

Shape the mixture into small, bite-sized patties.

Wipe the skillet clean, then add the remaining tablespoon of oil. Heat it over medium heat. Working in batches, fry the patties until they're golden brown and crispy, about 4 to 6 minutes per side.
