Equipment

  • Mixing bowl
  • knife
  • chopping board

Ingredients

  • 1 Cup of Tender Chopped Chicken the feather-light protein
  • 1/6 Tablespoons of Golden Breadcrumbs the crispy storytellers
  • 1/6 Tablespoons of Flour the powdery foundation
  • 1 Tablespoon of Zesty Lemon Juice the citrusy twist
  • 1/2 Cup of Velvet Milk the creamy elixir
  • 1/8 Tablespoon of Fiery Hot Chili Pepper Seeds for a spicy dance
  • 1 Whisked Egg the golden binder
  • 1/2 Tablespoon of Minced Onion the aromatic confetti
  • 1 Tablespoon of Freshly Minced Parsley the herbal flourish
  • 1/2 Tablespoon of Sea Salt the elemental essence

Instructions

  • In a mixing bowl, combine the chopped chicken, breadcrumbs, flour, lemon juice, milk, hot chili pepper seeds, minced onion, minced parsley, and salt.
  • Thoroughly mix the ingredients until well combined. The mixture should have a cohesive and slightly sticky texture.
  • With your hands, shape the mixture into croquettes. You can form them into oval or cylindrical shapes based on your preference.
  • In separate bowls, set up a breeding station. Place flour in one bowl, beaten egg in another, and breadcrumbs in a third.
  • Take each shaped croquette and coat it first in flour, then dip it in beaten egg, and finally coat it with breadcrumbs. Ensure an even coating.
  • Heat oil in a skillet for frying, or preheat the oven for baking. If frying, cook the croquettes until golden brown on all sides. If baking, place them on a lined baking sheet and bake until crispy.
  • If you fried the croquettes, place them on paper towels to drain excess oil.
  • Arrange the chicken croquettes on a serving platter.
  • Serve the Betty Crocker chicken croquettes hot as a delightful appetizer or snack.

Notes

  • You can use any type of cooked chicken for this recipe, including rotisserie, poached, or grilled chicken.
  • To make the croquettes crunchier, you can double-dip them in the egg and flour mixture.
  • If the croquettes are browning too quickly, lower the heat on the skillet.
  • For a dairy-free version, you can use almond or coconut milk in place of regular milk.
  • To make the croquettes spicier, add some cayenne pepper to the mixture.
  • You can also shape the croquettes into patties if you prefer.
