Time 2h55m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 14

¼ cup butter
¼ cup flour
½ cup milk
½ cup chicken broth
3 cups finely chopped cooked chicken
1 ½ cups seasoned bread crumbs, divided
2 eggs, beaten
¼ cup minced onion
1 tablespoon dried parsley
¼ teaspoon garlic powder
⅛ teaspoon celery seed
⅛ teaspoon cayenne pepper
salt and ground black pepper to taste
¼ cup oil, or as needed

Steps:

  • Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Whisk flour into melted butter; cook and stir until raw flour taste cooks off and a paste forms, about 1 minute. Slowly whisk milk and chicken broth into butter mixture, whisking constantly, until mixture is thick and smooth, 5 to 10 minutes. Remove sauce from heat and cool slightly, about 10 minutes.
  • Stir chicken, 1 cup bread crumbs, eggs, onion, parsley, garlic powder, celery seed, salt, and black pepper together in a bowl; add cooled sauce to chicken mixture and stir until well-combined. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate until chilled and firm, at least 2 hours.
  • Shape chilled chicken mixture into 6 patties. Pour remaining bread crumbs into a shallow bowl and roll each chicken patty in bread crumbs to coat completely.
  • Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook patties in hot oil, turning once, until patties are cooked through and golden brown on each side, about 10 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

Time 55m

Yield 8 to 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 21

1 cup milk
1 cup fresh chicken stock (canned broth may be substituted)
1/4 teaspoon white pepper
2 teaspoons freshly chopped parsley leaves
Salt, to taste (only if using fresh chicken stock)
1/4 pound butter
1 stalk celery, minced
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 1/4 pounds cooked chicken meat, ground in food processor
2 cups milk
2 eggs
1/8 teaspoon salt
3 cups all-purpose flour or cracker meal
3 cups breadcrumbs
3 tablespoons butter
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 cups chicken stock
2 teaspoons chopped fresh parsley leaves
Pinch white pepper and salt
Salad oil or liquid shortening, for frying
Mashed potatoes, for serving

Steps:

  • For the croquette batter: In a heavy pot, heat the milk and chicken stock on the stove and then add the white pepper, fresh parsley and salt, if needed. In a separate heavy pot, melt the butter and add the minced celery. Stir in the flour and cook for 3 minutes. Pour in the hot milk and stock and stir until thickened and smooth. Fold in the chicken meat and allow to cool.
  • Breading the croquettes: Shape 3-ounce portions of croquette batter in the shape of a cone and place on a tray lined with waxed paper. Next make an egg wash from the milk, eggs and salt. Dip the croquettes in the egg wash and then into the flour and let stand a few minutes. Finish breading by dipping the croquettes back in the egg wash and then rolling in breadcrumbs.
  • For the chicken gravy: Melt the butter in a 1- or 2-quart saucepan, and stir in the flour. Pour in the stock and whisk until smooth. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat and cook for 20 minutes. Add the fresh parsley, white pepper and salt, to taste, (if fresh stock was used).
  • Cooking the croquettes: Fry the croquettes in a pot with salad oil or liquid shortening, heated to 350 degrees F, until golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Drain well and blot on paper towels. Place on a bed of mashed potatoes and top each croquette with chicken gravy.
