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).

I love that these croquettes are baked instead of fried. They're still crispy, but they're not as greasy.
