Cooking Instructions:

In a large mixing bowl, combine the diced chicken, ground chicken, almond flour, eggs, mozzarella cheese, parmesan cheese (if using), chopped jalapeños, spring onion, parsley, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly incorporated.

Use an ice cream scoop or a large spoon to form the chicken mixture into fritters, shaping them into small patties about 2 ½ to 3 inches across.

Place the formed patties on a plate and refrigerate for one hour. This helps them hold their shape during cooking.

Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-low heat and add a mix of olive oil and butter to the pan. Allow the oil to heat up.

Carefully add the fritters to the pan in batches, making sure not to overcrowd. Cook for 3-4 minutes on the first side, then flip and cook for another 3 minutes or until they're golden brown and cooked through. Confirm the internal temperature reaches at least 165ºF.

Once cooked, transfer the fritters to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.

Serve warm with your favorite dipping sauces, such as ranch or bleu cheese dressing. For the best results, be certain to finely dice the chicken using a food processor for an even texture. Additionally, when frying, keep the heat at medium-low to avoid burning the fritters while allowing them to cook through. If you want a spicy kick, feel free to add more jalapeños or incorporate other spices into the mix.
