Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, combine the mashed potatoes, shredded chicken, cheddar cheese, and green onions. Mix well until evenly combined.
Step 2
Add the flour, eggs, salt, black pepper, and paprika to the mixture. Stir until a thick, moldable consistency is achieved.

Spread the breadcrumbs on a plate and roll each fritter in the breadcrumbs to coat evenly.

Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat until shimmering.
Step 6
Fry the fritters in batches, about 3-4 minutes per side, until golden brown and crispy.

Remove the fritters from the skillet and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil.
