Step 2: Add Seasonings and Breadcrumbs
Stir in dried thyme, onion powder, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Add breadcrumbs gradually until the mixture holds together but isn\u2019t too dry. Adjust with more breadcrumbs if necessary.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Step 3: Shape the Fritters
Form the chicken mixture into small patties or fritters, about 2 inches in diameter. Place them on a plate or baking sheet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Step 4: Heat the Oil
Pour about \u00bc inch of oil into a large skillet and heat over medium-high heat. The oil is ready when a small piece of mixture sizzles upon contact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Step 5: Fry the Fritters
Carefully add the fritters to the hot oil, leaving space between them. Fry 3\u20134 minutes per side until golden brown and crispy. Transfer cooked fritters to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Step 6: Serve and Enjoy
Serve hot with your favorite dipping sauces, such as ranch, honey mustard, or spicy aioli.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
