Chicken hash patties with potatoes, corn and spices

Chicken hash patties with potatoes, corn, and spices are a delicious and versatile dish that can be served for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. This recipe combines the tender juiciness of chicken with the earthy flavors of potatoes and the sweetness of corn, all brought together with a perfect blend of spices. It's easy to prepare, nutritious, and sure to be a hit with everyone at the table.

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Ingredients:
- Cook the chicken breasts if they are not already cooked. Once cooked, shred them using two forks or your hands.
- Peel and grate the potatoes. Use a clean kitchen towel or cheesecloth to squeeze out excess moisture from the grated potatoes.
- Finely chop the onion.

2. Mix the Ingredients:
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken, grated potatoes, sweet corn, chopped onion, red pepper, paprika, and garlic powder.
- Crack the egg into the bowl and mix thoroughly until all the ingredients are evenly incorporated. The egg will help bind the mixture together.

3. Form the Patties:
- Using your hands, take a portion of the mixture and form it into a patty. Aim for patties about the size of your palm and about 1/2 inch thick. Repeat until all the mixture is used up.

4. Cook the Patties:
- Heat the olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat.
- Once the oil is hot, place the patties in the skillet, making sure not to overcrowd the pan. You may need to cook them in batches.
- Cook the patties for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and cooked through. Check for doneness by ensuring the potatoes are tender and the chicken is reheated properly if it was pre-cooked.

5. Serve:
- Transfer the cooked patties to a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil.
- Serve hot alongside a side salad, some dipping sauce, or a dollop of sour cream.

Cooking these chicken hash patties with potatoes, corn, and spices is a simple yet rewarding process. The result is a flavorful and satisfying meal that's perfect for any time of the day. Enjoy your delicious patties hot off the stove, with your favorite sides, or even tucked into a sandwich for a tasty twist.

Chicken hash patties with potatoes, corn and spices FAQ:

What is the cooking time for the chicken hash patties?

Cook the patties for about 4-5 minutes on each side over medium heat, until they are golden brown and fully cooked. Make sure the potatoes are tender and the chicken is heated through if pre-cooked.

Can I substitute the chicken with another protein?

Yes, you can substitute the chicken with cooked turkey, beef, or a plant-based protein. Just ensure the substitute is cooked before mixing it into the patty mixture.

How should I store leftover chicken hash patties?

Store leftover patties in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. You can reheat them in a skillet or microwave until warmed through.

What type of potatoes work best for this recipe?

Russet potatoes are a great choice for this recipe as they provide a fluffy texture. Yukon Gold potatoes can also work well, offering a creamier consistency.

How do I know when the patties are fully cooked?

The patties are fully cooked when they are golden brown on the outside, the potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork, and the internal temperature reaches at least 165°F (74°C) if using chicken.

Tips:

- To save time, you can use pre-cooked or leftover chicken breasts.

- Grate or finely chop the potatoes to ensure they cook evenly and bind well with the other ingredients.

- Adjust the spices according to your taste preference; you can add more red pepper for extra heat or more garlic powder for a richer flavor.

- Make sure to drain any excess moisture from the sweet corn to prevent the patties from becoming too wet and falling apart.

- Use a non-stick skillet or a well-seasoned cast-iron pan to cook the patties to prevent sticking and ensure even browning.

- Allow the patties to cook undisturbed for several minutes on each side, flipping them only once to get a nice golden crust.

- Serve the patties with a dipping sauce like a simple aioli or a spicy sriracha mayo for added flavor.
