  • Author: Sophia Turner
  • Total Time: 45 minutes

Ingredients

– 2 cups cooked turkey, shredded
– 1 cup mashed potatoes
– 1/2 cup grated cheese (cheddar or mozzarella)
– 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
– 1/4 cup green onions, chopped
– 1/4 cup parsley, chopped
– 1 teaspoon garlic powder
– 1 teaspoon onion powder
– 1/2 teaspoon salt
– 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
– 2 large eggs
– 1 cup all-purpose flour
– Oil for frying


Instructions

Creating Turkey Croquettes is simple if you follow these steps:

1. Prep the Mixture: In a large bowl, combine the shredded turkey, mashed potatoes, grated cheese, green onions, parsley, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until fully combined.
2. Chill the Mixture: Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate the mixture for about 30 minutes. This will help it firm up for easier shaping.
3. Shape the Croquettes: Once chilled, take a small amount of the mixture and shape it into small oval or round patties. Repeat until all the mixture is used.
4. Coat the Croquettes: Set up a breading station with three bowls: one with flour, one with beaten eggs, and one with breadcrumbs. Dip each croquette first in flour, then in egg, and finally coat with breadcrumbs.
5. Heat Oil: In a large skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat until hot but not smoking.
6. Fry the Croquettes: Carefully place a few croquettes in the hot oil at a time, being careful not to overcrowd the pan. Fry each side for about 3-4 minutes or until golden brown.
7. Drain Excess Oil: Once cooked, transfer the croquettes to a paper towel-lined plate to absorb any excess oil.
8. Repeat: Continue frying the remaining croquettes until all are cooked.
9. Let Cool: Allow the croquettes to cool slightly before serving.
