Ingredients
Scale
2 chicken breasts, diced into ¼–½ inch cubes
2 eggs
¼ cup light mayonnaise
¼ cup all-purpose flour
½ cup shredded mozzarella cheese
¼ cup chopped green onions
½ teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon Knorr Bouillon seasoning powder
¼ teaspoon black pepper
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 small English cucumber
3 tablespoons sour cream
2 tablespoons Greek yogurt
1–2 tablespoons lemon juice
Salt to taste
Pepper to taste
1 garlic clove, grated
Instructions
- Clean the chicken breasts and dice into ¼-½ inch cubes. Place in a large bowl.
- Combine diced chicken with mayonnaise, shredded mozzarella, flour, eggs, green onions, salt, pepper, and bouillon seasoning. Mix thoroughly.
- Heat a pan over medium heat and add olive oil. Once hot, scoop portions of the batter into the pan using an ice cream scoop or spoon. Cook each fritter for 5-7 minutes per side until fully cooked through. Repeat until all batter is used.
- Grate the English cucumber and sprinkle with ½ teaspoon salt. Let sit for 5 minutes, then squeeze out excess water. Combine cucumber with sour cream, Greek yogurt, lemon juice, grated garlic, salt, and pepper in a clean bowl. Mix well and adjust seasoning to taste.
- Serve warm chicken fritters with the prepared yogurt-cucumber dip on the side.
Notes
- For even portions, use an ice cream scoop to measure the batter into the pan.
- Avoid overcrowding the pan; cook the fritters in batches for the best results.
- Do not cook over very high heat to prevent the fritters from burning.
- Chicken thighs can be substituted for chicken breasts if preferred.
- For a gluten-free version, substitute all-purpose flour with a gluten-free blend.
- The dip can be made ahead and refrigerated for up to 2 days.
