Parmesan Panko Chicken Poppers Recipes

EASY TO SERVE CHICKEN PARMESAN POPPERS RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Drain and dry the pickled cherry peppers, then cut off the tops and use a teaspoon to scoop out the seeds. Place a mozzarella ball inside of each one.
• Make the chicken mixture: In a large bowl, combine the ground chicken, egg, Parmesan, milk, bread crumbs, onion, parsley, garlic powder, pepper, and salt. Mix well.
• Take a golf ball-size amount of the chicken mixture and pat it out flat in your palm. Place a stuffed cherry pepper in the center and wrap the chicken mixture around it until completely covered, rolling into a ball. Repeat with the remaining cherry peppers.
• Chill for 20 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 450°F (230°C).
• Prepare for frying: Add the bread crumbs to a medium bowl with the Parmesan, dried parsley, garlic powder, and salt. Beat the eggs in a separate medium bowl. Add the flour to another medium bowl.
• Toss a chicken meatball in the flour, then coat in the eggs, then roll in the bread crumbs. Repeat with remaining meatballs.
• Heat a large pan with ¼ inch (6 ml) of canola oil over medium-high heat until the oil reaches 400°F (200˚C).
• Working in batches, fry the chicken meatballs for 1-2 minutes on each side, or until light golden brown. Once finished, blot dry with paper towels and transfer to a greased baking sheet.
• Dollop 1 tablespoon of marinara sauce on each ball, then top with a piece of mozzarella cheese.
• Bake for 8 minutes, or until meatballs are cooked through with an internal temperature of 165°F (75˚C).
• Sprinkle with parsley and serve.
• Enjoy!

PARMESAN AND PANKO CHICKEN TENDERS

Steps:

• Beat egg in a pie plate with water. Combine panko and Parmesan cheese in a separate dish.
• Dip each chicken tender into the egg mixture, then into the panko mixture and cover until well coated.
• Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add tenders and fry until light brown, about 3 minutes per side. Continue to fry, flipping occasionally, until golden on the outside, about 12 more minutes. Cut one open to make sure juices are running clear and chicken is no longer pink on the inside.
