Chicken Croquettes

Ingredients

  • 10 ounces can white meat chicken, undrained
  • 1/2 cup onion, finely chopped
  • 1 jalapeno, seeded and chopped
  • 1 1/2 cup seasoned Italian breadcrumbs, plus 2 Tbs
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/8 tsp garlic powder
  • salt
  • pepper
  • a couple of dashes of Tobasco sauce
  • lemon juice

Instructions

Place chicken in a mixing bowl and flake with a fork until no large lumps remain. Add the onion, jalapenpo, salt, pepper, garlic powder, Tobasco sauce, eggs and 1 cup of the bread crumbs. Mix together until well combined. If needed, add one or two more Tbs of the breadcrumbs. It should be the same consistancy as meat loaf. Shape into a small patty (about 1/4-1/3 cup), and press both sides into the remaining breadcrumbs. Heat a non-stick skillet on medium heat until hot. Add about a Tbs of corn or canola oil. When the oil just starts to smoke, add the patties and fry until crispy and brown on each side. (You can use cooking spray instead, I guess, but my mom did it this way and you really don't use that much oil.) Drain on paper towels and salt and sprinkle with lemon juice.
