Ingredients
  

For the Fritters

  • 750 grams chicken breasts, cut into 1/3 inch cubes, or coarse ground
  • 2 eggs, lightly beaten
  • 1/3 cup mayo
  • 1/3 cup all purpose flour
  • 1 1/3 cup Mozzarella Cheese
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons fresh dill, chopped
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon black pepper
  • cooking oil, any high heat oil is fine

For the Garlic Aioli Dip

  • 1/3 cup mayo
  • 1 clove garlic, pressed
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons lemon juice
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions
 

  • Place the cubed (or coarse ground) chicken in a large bowl, add the rest of the Fritter ingredients except the oil.
  • Mix well, cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or even overnight.
  • When you are ready to cook, heat the cooking oil in a large non stick pan over medium heat. Add heaping tablespoons of the meat to the hot pan, use the back of the spoon to slightly flatten each fritter. Cook for 3-4 minutes or until the bottom and edges are golden brown, flip and cook the other side until golden brown and chicken is cooked through.
  • To make the Garlic Aioli dipping sauce, just add all of the aioli ingredients to a small bowl and mix together. Feel free to use any dipping sauce you prefer, toum would be a good choice, and for a Thai flair, use chili garlic sauce for dipping.
  • Serve with the dipping sauce.

Notes

The chicken would cost about 60 Baht 750 grams. I will estimate about 4 servings, that works out to about 44 cents per serving.
Variants: Change the dill to parsley or rosemary. Add minced spring onion, shallots, or garlic. For dipping sauces, try just mayo, sour cream, toum, chili garlic sauce, etc. You could make this a different fritter each time you prepare this dish.

    I made these on 3 Sep 2017, and wow are they good! Even my wife, who tends to shy away from chicken loved these. Made as written with some spring onion added as well and a bit of black pepper when I fried them. Spot on perfect, highly recommended.
