Quick and Easy Chicken Patties

Author Daniel Carter

Ingredients

  • 15 oz canned chicken - chunk or shredded
  • ½ cup mayonnaise - try ⅓, because ¼ is too little
  • 1 egg
  • 2 bread heels - or slices

Choose one flavor variation:

Pesto

  • 1 tbsp pesto - we prefer Trader Joe’s

Indian

  • ??? turmeric - cumin, onion, garlic?

Mexican

  • ??? chili - cumin, paprika, garlic onion?

Italian

  • ??? oregano - rosemary, thyme

Instructions

Prepare toast...

  • Toast bread until medium-dark (crispy)
  • Cut and/or crumble toast into small pieces

Make separate mixes

  • In one bowl, mix toast crumbs and chicken thoroughly.
  • In separate bowl mix egg, mayo, and flavor variation.
  • Combine mixes, stir well.
  • The mixture should be moist enough to become patties. If it’s too dry add a teaspoon at a time of mayo.

Cook

  • In a non-stick skillet on medium, spoon a large dip of mix then flatten into patty with spoon.
  • Repeat until skillet is not quite full so you have room to flip.
  • Cook until brown.
  • Be sure the middle is cooked and the outside is browned.
