Equipment
- nonstick pan
Ingredients
- 2 lb ground chicken
- 2½ cup white sweet potato grated
- 1 white onion fine chopped
- 5 clove garlic minced
- ¾ cup delicata squash peeled, grated
- 1½ tsp salt
- ½ tsp white pepper ground
- 1 tsp crushed red pepper
- 1 tsp mixed herbs dried
- 2 tbsp almond flour
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
- 1 egg beaten
- 1½ cup bread crumb
- 3 tbsp olive oil for pan frying
Instructions
- Prepare the ingredients.
- Mix the ingredients in a bowl. Cover with cling film and chill for 45 minutes.
- Divide the mixture into 24 balls and shape them 1.5" long and ½" thick with two tapered ends. Dust lightly with flour.
- Heat a nonstick pan, drizzle some olive oil and cook the patties on medium heat for 7 minutes. Flip the patties over and cook for another 7-8 minutes or until golden brown.
- Drain the patties on a paper towel.
- Serve the Chicken Rissole hot with ketchup.
Notes
1. Dust the patties lightly with flour. Too much flour will burn the outer crust faster.
2. Do not overcrowd the pan; pan-fry a few patties at a time on low to medium heat.
3. Oil the palms of your hands while shaping the patties to prevent sticking.
4. Add more breadcrumbs if the mixture is too slack.
5. Rinse, strain, and lightly squeeze out any excess water in the ground chicken by running it through a sieve. Too much water in the ground chicken will make it difficult to form patties that hold their shape.
