Be careful not to overmix the chicken mixture. Overmixing can make the cakes tough.
If you don't have a steamer, you can cook the chicken cakes in a pan with a little oil. Just be sure to cook them over medium heat so that they don't burn.
Serve the chicken cakes with your favorite dipping sauce. Sweet chili sauce is a classic choice, but you could also try a spicy mayo or a tangy yogurt sauce.
