Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Cooked chicken breast, shredded
- 1 cup Panko breadcrumbs
- 0.5 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- 2 stalks Green onions, finely chopped
- 2 large Eggs
- 0.25 cup Mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
- 1 pepper Chipotle peppers in adobo sauce
- 1 tablespoon Lime juice
- 0.5 cup Additional mayonnaise (for chipotle mayo)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken, panko breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, green onions, eggs, 1/4 cup mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.
Mix the ingredients until well combined. If the mixture feels too wet, add a little more panko breadcrumbs; if too dry, add a small amount of mayonnaise.
Form the mixture into small patties, about 2-3 inches in diameter. You should get around 8-10 patties.
Heat the vegetable oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Cook the chicken cakes in batches for 3-4 minutes per side, or until golden brown and heated through. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil.
For the chipotle mayo, finely chop the chipotle pepper and mix it with the 1/2 cup mayonnaise and lime juice in a small bowl. Adjust spice level by adding more adobo sauce from the can, if desired.
Serve the chicken cakes warm, alongside the chipotle mayo for dipping or drizzling. Enjoy!
