Fried Chicken Donuts
Did someone say donuts? We did, but these ones are made out of chicken. With crispy fried chicken, creamy potatoes, ooey gooey cheese, and spicy jalapeños, these donuts will be an instant hit with the entire family.
Ingredients
- 7 oz cooked potatoes
- 1 lb ground chicken
- 4½ oz flour
- 5½ oz bread crumbs
- 2 eggs
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1½ tbsp jalapeños, chopped
- 1 tsp cumin
- 1 tsp salt
- ½ tsp pepper
- garlic and ginger, grated
- 14 oz block cheese
- panko
For the dipping sauce:
- 5½ oz mayonnaise
- 2 tbsp chives
- 3 oz sour cream
- 1 tsp dill
- ½ tsp Worcester sauce
- 1 garlic clove, grated
- 1 tsp black pepper
Instructions
1. Boil the potatoes and mash them until smooth. Add the ground chicken, flour, bread crumbs, eggs, baking powder, jalapeños, cumin, salt, pepper, ginger, and garlic, and mix everything together with your hands.
2. Cut a ¼ to ½ inch-thick slice from a block of cheese (about the width of your finger). Use a glass or small bowl to cut out a circle and then use a shot glass to punch out a hole in the middle. Repeat this process three more times for a total of four cheese rings.
3. Flatten some of the meat mixture in your hand, put the cheese ring on top, and fold the meat around the cheese. Add more meat on top until the cheese ring is completely enveloped. Dredge the chicken donuts in panko and fry them in a pan with hot oil.
4. Prepare the dipping sauce using the above ingredients.
