Onialetta Savory Potato & Meat Patties

Instructions

1. 1

   Peel and cut the potatoes into chunks. Boil them in salted water until tender, about 15-20 minutes. Drain and let cool slightly.

2. 2

   While the potatoes are boiling, finely chop the onions and the chicken breast.

3. 3

   In a non-stick skillet, heat half the olive oil (1/2 tablespoon) over medium heat. Add the onions and sauté until translucent, about 3-4 minutes. Add the chopped chicken breast and cook until no longer pink, about 5-6 minutes. Season with salt and black pepper. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.

4. 4

   Mash the boiled potatoes in a large bowl. Add the cooked chicken and onion mixture, the egg, whole wheat flour, and additional salt and black pepper to taste. Mix well until all ingredients are combined and the mixture holds together.

5. 5

   With wet hands, shape the mixture into small patties (about 8-10, depending on size).

6. 6

   Heat the remaining olive oil (1/2 tablespoon) in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Cook the patties in batches for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and heated through.

7. 7

   Serve hot, garnished with fresh herbs if desired.
