Ingredients
- 500 g (1.1 lb) chicken breast, finely diced
- 150 g (5.3 oz) corn kernels, drained
- 150 g (5.3 oz) shredded cheese
- 2 eggs
- 3 tbsp flour
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Oil for frying
Instructions
- Combine diced chicken, corn, cheese, eggs, and flour in a bowl; season with salt and pepper.
- Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat.
- Spoon the mixture into the pan to form small patties.
- Fry 4-5 minutes per side until golden and cooked through.
- Serve warm.
Tips
- Dice the chicken as finely as you can — small, even pieces cook through faster and help the patties hold together.
- Don’t overcrowd the skillet; fry in batches so the patties turn crisp and golden instead of steaming.
- For food safety, the USDA recommends cooking poultry to a safe internal temperature — use a thermometer to check.
