Adjusting Texture: If the mixture is too wet, add more breadcrumbs to help bind it. If it’s too dry, add a bit of mayonnaise or an extra egg for moisture.
Baking Option: For a healthier alternative, bake the fritters on a greased baking sheet at 375°F (190°C) for 15-20 minutes, flipping halfway through until they are golden and crispy.
Variations:
1. Cheesy Chicken Fritters
Add 1/2 cup of shredded cheddar or mozzarella cheese to the chicken mixture for extra flavor and gooey goodness.
2. Spicy Chicken Fritters
Mix in 1/4 teaspoon of cayenne pepper or red pepper flakes for a spicy kick.
3. Herbed Chicken Fritters
Add fresh herbs like parsley, cilantro, or chives to the mixture for a bright, herby flavor.
