Instructions
- Cut the 1 1/2 pound Chicken breasts into chunks and place them in a food processor.
- Pulse for about 1 minute for finely chopped pieces or less for coarsely ground meat (be careful not to over-process the meat into a paste). The meat should hold together when pinched. Alternatively, you can use ground chicken.
- Next, hold the broccoli with the stem facing up and, using a sharp knife, carefully separate the florets, making downward cuts from the stem.
- Bring a pot of water to boil over medium-high heat. Once the water starts to bubble, place the 1 cup finely chopped broccoli florets in a steam basket and add it on top of the boiling water.
- Cover with a lid and let the broccoli steam for 2-3 minutes. Once the broccoli is done, remove it from the heat and allow it to cool. Chop it into small pieces.
- Place the ground chicken, broccoli,1 cup Panko breadcrumbs, 2 Eggs, 2 tablespoons Chopped dill, 1/2 teaspoon Onion powder, 1/2 teaspoon Garlic powder, 1/2 teaspoon Salt, and 1/4 teaspoon Pepper in a bowl.
- Using your clean hands, mix until all the ingredients are evenly combined. Rub your hands with a bit of oil and pinch off a piece of meat mixture; shape it into a mini patty, about 1/2 inch thick.
- Heat 2 teaspoons Oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
- Cook the patties on each side until nicely golden brown, about 3-4 minutes per side.
- Serve the fritters with your favorite dip, and enjoy!
