Yield Makes 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 1/2 pounds skinless boneless chicken breasts, cut into 1 1/2-inch pieces
1 (8-ounces) can whole water chestnuts, rinsed and drained
1 bunch scallions, chopped (1 cup)
1 teaspoon minced fresh jalapeño chile, including seeds
2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
1 1/4 teaspoons salt
2 teaspoons vegetable oil
Special Equipment
6 (8-inch) wooden skewers

Steps:

  • Pulse chicken in a food processor until coarsely chopped and transfer to a large bowl. Add water chestnuts, scallions, and jalapeño to processor and pulse until finely chopped, then add to chicken along with cilantro and salt. Stir together with your hands until just combined.
  • Form mixture into 18 (2-inch-diameter) patties on a baking sheet, then thread 3 patties through their sides onto each skewer.
  • Heat 1 teaspoon oil in a 12-inch nonstick skillet over moderate heat until hot but not smoking, then transfer 3 skewers of patties using a large metal spatula to skillet and cook until golden and just cooked through, about 3 minutes on each side. Transfer to a platter and keep warm, covered with foil. Add remaining teaspoon oil to skillet and cook remaining patties in same manner.

I'm sorry, but I have to say that this recipe is a fail. I followed the instructions exactly and the patties turned out inedible.

These patties were a bit too greasy for my liking. I think I'll try baking them instead of frying them next time.

I had some trouble getting the patties to hold together. I think I might have overcooked the chicken.

These patties were a little bland for my taste. I think I'll add some more spices next time.

These patties are a great way to use up leftover chicken. I usually make a double batch and freeze half for later.

These chicken patties were a hit with my family! They were crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside, and the water chestnuts added a nice crunch.
