The filling of my Chicken Kyiv inspired dish ‘Crumbed Chicken Patties’ is the mixture of Garlic, Parsley & Cheese. I started to use Cheese because Butter often leaked, and Cheese filling is easier to make. But today, I used Butter. Just like Ukrainian Chicken Kyiv. Butter didn’t leak at all. When I cut the fried patty, melted Butter filling came out and it smelled REALLY GOOD!!!

4 Servings
Ingredients
500g Chicken Mince
*Note: Finely minced Breast Fillets could be too soft to handle. Please read the notes in the method section.
1 Onion *finely chopped
*Note: It’s a good idea to microwave the finely chopped Onion for 1 minutes to soften
1/2 cup ‘Panko’ Breadcrumbs
1/2 Egg *whisked
1/2 teaspoon Salt
Ground Pepper to taste
Oil for frying
Garlic & Parsley Butter
2 cloves Garlic *grated OR minced
60g Butter *softened
2 tablespoons chopped Parsley
Coating
2-3 tablespoons Plain Flour *add more if needed
1 Egg *whisked
2/3 cup ‘Panko’ Breadcrumbs
Method
To make Garlic & Parsley Butter, combine softened Butter, Garlic and Parsley in a small bowl. Wrap it with plastic food wrap, and cool in the fridge or freezer until firm. Divide the mixture into 4 portions, form into thin rounds or oblongs. *Note: Keep in the fridge until use.Place Chicken Mince and finely chopped Onion in a large bowl, add Panko, Egg, Salt and Pepper, and mix well. *Note: If the mixture is too soft, add some extra Panko. Divide into 4 portions.Take 1 portion of Chicken mixture. Halve the mixture, place 1 Garlic & Parsley Butter in the centre, and cover with the other half, seal well, and shape it into a round or oblong. Flatten slightly.*Note: If the mixture is very sticky, wet your hands with water will help. Repeat with the remaining mixture and filling.Coat with Flour, then dip in lightly whisked Eggs to coat, and finally coat with Panko Breadcrumbs. *Note: If the mixture is too soft to handle, slightly freeze to firm up, so that coating would be easier.Fry in the deep Oil at about 170℃ for 5-6 minutes or until golden. Today I served with French Fries.
