Ingredients
12 servings
- •1 pound skinless, boneless chicken thighs, cut into 1-inch pieces
- •2 stalks celery, roughly chopped
- •0.5 cup chopped onion
- •0.5 cup chopped carrots
- •2 cloves garlic, peeled and smashed
- •2 tablespoons fresh rosemary leaves
- •1 large egg, lightly beaten
- •4 tablespoons almond flour
- •2 tablespoons mayonnaise
- •1 teaspoon salt
- •0.5 teaspoon ground black pepper
- •0.25 cup avocado oil, or as needed, for frying
Instructions
- Place 1/3 of the chicken pieces into the bowl of a food processor and pulse several times until broken down into small pieces; do not overprocess. Transfer chicken to a mixing bowl. Repeat 2 more times with remaining chicken.
- Place celery, onion, carrots, garlic, and rosemary into the food processor and pulse several times until vegetables are 1/4 inch in size. Add to the mixing bowl with the chicken.
- Add egg, almond flour, mayonnaise, salt, and pepper to the bowl with the chicken mixture. Stir until evenly combined.
- Pour 1/4 inch of avocado oil into a 12-inch nonstick skillet over medium-low heat. Heat until shimmering. Use a 1/4-cup measure to drop 6 portions of chicken mixture into the oil. Lightly press each mound into a 3-inch fritter. Cook until chicken is no longer pink and tops are browned, 2 to 3 minutes on each side.
- Transfer cooked patties to a plate lined with paper towels. Repeat with the remaining mixture. Serve warm.
