Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams chicken breast
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon paprika
- 100 grams all-purpose flour
- 150 grams breadcrumbs
- 2 large egg
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 500 milliliters oil, for frying
Instructions
Begin by dicing the chicken breast into small, even pieces.
In a food processor, add the diced chicken and pulse until it reaches a fine, minced consistency.
Transfer the minced chicken to a large mixing bowl and add garlic powder, onion powder, salt, black pepper, and paprika. Mix well until the spices are evenly incorporated into the chicken.
In three separate bowls, prepare your breading stations: add the flour to the first bowl, beat the eggs and milk together in the second bowl, and place the breadcrumbs in the third bowl.
Shape the seasoned minced chicken into small balls, about 1 inch in diameter, using your hands.
Roll each chicken ball in the flour, ensuring they are well-coated, then dip into the egg mixture, and finally roll in the breadcrumbs, pressing gently to ensure the breadcrumbs stick well.
In a large deep frying pan, heat the oil over medium heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).
Carefully add the chicken balls to the hot oil, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan. Fry in batches if necessary.
Fry the chicken balls for about 5-7 minutes, turning occasionally until they are golden brown and cooked through.
Remove the chicken balls with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels to absorb excess oil.
Serve the fried chicken balls hot with your favorite dipping sauce.
