Ingredients

  • 1 lbs minced chicken
  • 2 slices bread or 1/2 cup fresh bread crumbs
  • 2 tbsp onion finely chopped
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp crushed chilies
  • 1 cup shredded cheese

For coating

  • 1 cup Bread crumbs season it with a pinch of salt and red chili powder
  • 2 eggs add a pinch of salt and pepper and whisk
  • 1/2 cup all purpose flour

Oil for Frying

Instructions

  • In a bowl, add minced chicken, spices, bread crumbs, chopped cilantro, and onion. Mix it well.
  • Now take a little bit of oil on your hands and shape it into a patty and then make a hole in the center to shape like a donut. If your mixture is too sticky add more bread crumbs or leave the mixture in the freezer for 30 minutes to set.

Coating the chicken donuts

  • Now take 3 bowls and add all-purpose flour in one. Eggs in the second and bread crumbs in the third one. Season them all with the mentioned spices.
  • Dip the donuts one by one in the flour, then the egg, and then in the bread crumbs. Leave them in the freeze for a minimum of 30 minutes.
  • Heat oil in a pan, and fry them in batches over medium heat until nice and golden to your liking. They’ll take 6-7 minutes to cook per side.
  • You can also air-fry them until golden.
