Cooking Instructions
- 1
Shred the chicken, remove the bones, pour all the oil from the rotisserie chicken over it, and mix well to absorb the flavor. Set aside on a plate.
- 2
Prepare the béchamel sauce. In a pan over medium-low heat, add the butter and let it melt until it turns a caramelized brown color.
- 3
Add the flour, mix until toasted, and it changes to a slightly brown color (it will have a sweet smell). Now gradually add the milk, stirring until you reach the desired thickness for the dough.
- 4
When you can draw a straight line with the spatula without it coming together immediately, it's the ideal consistency. Add salt, nutmeg, pepper to taste, and the chicken. Mix well.
- 5
Store it in a container, covering the dough with plastic wrap, and refrigerate for about 12 hours.
- 6
Prepare the breadcrumbs for tomorrow. I prepare them in two different ways, depending on the dish. I use a blender to make them very fine, for example, for breaded chicken.
- 7
And I use a food processor for a coarser cut, which I use for croquettes, as it gives them a slightly crunchier texture. I use both appliances because it's easier to control the texture with the food processor, as the blender makes it very fine.
- 8
After 12 hours, divide the dough into squares (I wanted round ones, so it was easier for me this way). Shape the croquettes, coat them in flour, then in egg, and finally in breadcrumbs.
- 9
At this point, you can freeze them to enjoy later or cook them now. I ended up with about 24 croquettes.
- 10
Fry them in hot oil.

Enjoy!

Homemade Chicken Croquettes 🐓 Homemade Chicken Croquettes 🐓
Another one of Spain’s most famous tapas is CROQUETTES (croquetas). The most common ones are chicken croquettes, made from the leftover chicken used to prepare broth for stew.Since they are typically made with the less appealing parts of the chicken, like the entire carcass, adding more meat, such as the breasts, makes them even better. Once cooked, the breast meat can be repurposed for croquettes.Here, I don’t make stew because it’s very difficult to find a chicken carcass, so I make them using rotisserie chicken. When we buy one for a meal, we usually have the two breasts left over, so I use them to make croquettes.I have fond memories of making them with my grandmother! I would stand on a little stool because I couldn’t reach the kitchen counter, helping her coat them in breadcrumbs! Hers were truly the best! Every time we visited, I would always ask her to make them for me!#february2026 Chus Molinero -

Round Potato Croquettes Round Potato Croquettes
To retain the potato flavor, I eliminated the other ingredients!I first made this dish for the Moon-viewing festival. But it was well-received by my family that I always shape croquettes into balls like this.Make sure that the coatings of flour and panko sticks to the potato balls.When forming the balls, squeeze hard as if you're squeezing the air trapped inside! Squeeze the balls once more before deep frying to prevent them from exploding when dee-frying. Recipe by Ru-ru cookpad.japan
