Chicken Croquettes with Creole Sauce

Adapted from Cajunlicious/Paula Deen

Ingredients:

Canola Oil

1/3 cup minced red bell pepper

1/3 cup minced celery

1/3 cup minced onion

2 cups finely cooked chicken

1 cup panko breadcrumbs

1/4 cup light mayonnaise

1/4 cup fat free sour cream

1 large egg and 1 large egg white lightly beaten

1 Tbsp Dijon mustard

1/2 Tbsp Worcestershire sauce

1 tsp sea salt

Creole Sauce:

1 clove garlic, minced

1/3 cup light mayonnaise

1/3 cup light sour cream

1 Tbsp. Dijon mustard

1 Tbsp. fresh lemon juice

1 tsp. Creole seasoning

For the sauce: In a small bowl, combine all the ingredients. Cover and chill.

Pre-Heat oven to 425

In a skillet, add 1 Tbsp of canola oil over medium heat. Add the red bell pepper, celery, and onions and cook until tender, about 5 minutes.

In a large bowl, combine the chicken, panko, and red bell pepper mixture. Set aside.

In a small bowl, combine the mayonnaise, sour cream, eggs, mustard, Worcestershire sauce, and salt. Add to the chicken mixture, tossing gently to combine. Form the mixture into patties. I used an ice cream scoop and combined 2 scoops to form the patty. Spray sheet pan with Canola Oil spray and place patties on baking pan then lightly spray patties with the spray, bake for 5 minutes then flip the patties and bake for another 5 minutes.

Serve with Creole Sauce and enjoy!
