Crispy Fried Chicken Patties

A lighter, modern take on the traditional meatball. While pork meatballs are heavier and richer, the chicken version offers a more delicate flavor profile. The secret is the ratio of binder (egg, breadcrumbs) to meat: too many crumbs make it dry, too few make it fall apart. Garlic and paprika remain essential elements, giving it that Hungarian character.

Instructions

1 ✓

Mix the ground chicken with finely chopped onion, crushed garlic, egg, and spices.

Tip: Chop the onion very finely or grate it so there are no large, crunchy chunks in the patty.
2 ✓

Gradually add breadcrumbs until you get a shapeable but not hard mixture. Refrigerate for 20 minutes.

Tip: Resting allows the crumbs to absorb moisture, helping the patties hold together better.
3 ✓

With wet hands, form patties, dredge them in extra breadcrumbs, and fry in medium-hot oil until golden brown.

Tip: Avoid extremely high heat; the outside will burn before the inside cooks through (crucial for chicken!).
4 ✓

Drain excess oil on paper towels.

Tip: Serve immediately while the crust is crispy.
