Directions Keto Chicken Fritters
Directions
-
Combine chicken pieces, salt, paprika, pepper, and garlic powder in the bowl of a food processor, pulse until meat is coarsely chopped into 1/4- to 1/2-inch pieces. Do not over process.
Transfer chicken mixture to a bowl. Add mozzarella cheese, mayonnaise, egg, and green onions, mix to combine. Sprinkle protein powder on top and mix together until evenly combined. Set aside for flavors to blend, 20 to 30 minutes, the mixture will be wet.
Preheat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Use a 1/4-cup measuring cup to scoop 4 slightly heaping portions into the skillet. Press down on each fritter slightly to form a small patty. Cook until no longer pink in the center and fritters are golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
Remove fritters and drain on a paper towel-lined plate, keep warm. Repeat with remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil and chicken mixture. Serve immediately.
