Out of a craving for buffalo chicken, but not wanting the unhealthiness of buffalo chicken dip and a desire for crunch, I combined my love for buffalo chicken with a "cake," like a crab cake! —Alexa Federico
Ingredients
-
3 cups
cooked, shredded chicken
-
3/4 cup
hot sauce of choice
-
1/2 teaspoon
sea salt
-
1 tablespoon
oil, such as EVOO
-
2 cups
gluten free or paleo flour (I used tapioca flour)
Directions
-
Place a medium or large pan on the stove at medium-high heat. Add oil.
-
Shred 3 cups of cooked chicken (I take it off a roasted chicken or store-bought rotisserie).
-
Combine chicken, hot sauce, and salt in a large bowl.
-
Add flour to a shallow dish.
-
Hand form chicken into circular patties and coat entirely in the flour.
-
When the oil is hot place patties in the pan, flipping once when the bottom has formed a crust that is starting to brown.
-
After both sides have formed a crust, add chicken cakes to a dish with a paper towel to absorb excess oil.
