Chicken Cakes by Big Mama

I love me some Big Mama and I have a feeling I'm about to love me some Chicken Cakes as well.

Chicken Cakes with Remoulade Sauce


Ingredients:

  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1/2 medium size red bell pepper, diced
  • 4 green onion, thinly sliced
  • 1 garlic clove, minced
  • 3 cups chopped cooked chicken
  • 1 cup soft bread crumbs (The Mama uses Progresso bread crumbs with Garlic and Onion)
  • 1 large egg, lightly beaten
  • 2 tablespoons mayonnaise (you can use light or fat free)
  • 1 tablespoon Creole mustard (or stoneground mustard if you can’t find Creole)
  • 1 tsp. Creole seasoning
  • 1/4 cup vegetable oil
  • Remoulade Sauce (recipe follows)
 Directions:

  • Melt butter in large skillet over medium heat. Add bell pepper, green onions and garlic. Saute 3-4 minutes or until vegetables are tender.
  • Stir together bell pepper mixture, chicken and next five ingredients. Shape mixture into 6-8 patties depending on the size (you can also make mini-patties to serve as hors douerves).
  • Fry 4 patties at a time in 2 tablespoons hot oil in a large skillet over medium heat 3 minutes on each side or until golden brown. Drain on paper towels. Repeat until all patties are cooked. Serve immediately with Remoulade Sauce.
