Recipe For Dutch Chicken Croquettes

Instructions

1. In a saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add flour and cook, whisking constantly, for about 2 minutes to create a roux.

2. Gradually whisk in the chicken broth and milk until smooth. Cook, stirring constantly until the mixture thickens, about 5-7 minutes.

3. Add shredded chicken, nutmeg, salt, and pepper to the sauce. Stir well to combine and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat and let it cool to room temperature.

4. Once the chicken mixture has cooled, shape it into small croquettes. You can make them round or cylindrical, depending on your preference.

5. In a shallow bowl, beat the eggs. Place the breadcrumbs in another shallow bowl.

6. Dip each croquette into the beaten eggs, then coat with breadcrumbs, ensuring they are evenly covered.

7. Heat oil in a deep pan over medium heat. Fry the croquettes in batches until they are golden brown and crispy on the outside, about 2-3 minutes per side.

8. Once cooked, transfer the croquettes to a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil.

9. Serve the Dutch Chicken Croquettes hot with your favorite dipping sauce or a side salad for a delicious meal that will surely impress.
