Ingredients
2 cups cooked chicken, shredded
1/2 cup diced ham
1/2 cup Swiss cheese, shredded
1/2 cup cream cheese, softened
1 cup panko breadcrumbs
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
2 large eggs, beaten
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
Salt and pepper to taste
Fresh parsley, chopped for garnish
Dijon mustard or ranch dressing for dipping (optional)
Directions
Prepare the filling: In a bowl, combine shredded chicken, diced ham, Swiss cheese, cream cheese, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Mix well until the filling is cohesive.
Form the bites: Roll the mixture into small balls, about one to two inches in diameter.
Coat the bites: Dredge each ball in flour, dip in beaten eggs, and coat with panko breadcrumbs.
Fry or bake: Heat oil in a frying pan and fry the bites until golden and crispy, about two to three minutes per side. Alternatively, bake them at 200°C or 400°F for 15 to 20 minutes until golden.
Serve: Garnish with fresh parsley and serve with Dijon mustard or ranch dressing for dipping.
