How to make Keto Cheesy Chicken Fritters Recipe

Ingredients for Keto Cheesy Chicken Fritters Recipe:
1.5 lb (700g) skinless boneless chicken breast

2 medium eggs

1/3 cup almond flour

1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

2 Tbsp fresh basil – finely chopped

2 Tbsp chives – chopped

2 Tbsp parsley – chopped

1/2 tsp garlic powder

a pinch of sea salt and fresh ground black pepper – or to taste

1 Tbps olive oil – or more to fry

Instructions:
Place the chicken breast on a chopping board and using a sharp knife, chop it into tiny pieces, then place them in a large mixing bowl.

Into the large bowl, stir in almond flour, eggs, mozzarella, basil, chives, parsley, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Mix well to combine.

Heat oil in a large non-stick pan, over medium-low heat. With an ice cream scoop or a large spoon, scoop into the chicken mixture and transfer it to the pan, then slightly flatten to create a fritter. Don’t overcrowd the pan, cook the fritters in batches, about 4 per batch.

Fry until golden brown on both sides, about 7-9 minutes. Keep in mind that you need to cook them at medium-low temp, otherwise they will burn on the outside but won’t get well cooked on the inside.
