Ingredients
- 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter

- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, finely chopped
- 0.5 teaspoon Nutmeg
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 cup Milk
- 2 Eggs
- 2 cups Plain breadcrumbs
- 0 Vegetable oil for frying
Directions
Step 1
In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat.
Step 2
Stir in the flour and cook for about 3-4 minutes, stirring continuously until it forms a smooth paste (roux).
Step 3
Gradually whisk in the low sodium chicken broth, continuing to stir until the mixture thickens.
Step 4
Add the finely chopped cooked chicken, parsley, nutmeg, and black pepper to the thickened sauce, mixing well.
Step 5
Remove from heat and let the mixture cool, then refrigerate for about an hour or until it is firm enough to shape.
Step 6
Once chilled, shape the mixture into small, cylindrical croquettes (about 2-3 inches long).
Step 7
In a shallow bowl, beat the eggs with the milk.
Step 8
Place the breadcrumbs in another shallow bowl.
Step 9
Dip each croquette into the egg mixture, allowing excess to drip off, then roll in breadcrumbs until fully coated.
Step 10
In a deep pan, heat the vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C).
Step 11
Carefully fry the croquettes in batches for 3-4 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy.
Step 12
Remove and drain on paper towels. Serve warm.
