ingredients
- 3 cooked chicken breasts
- 16 ounces cream cheese
- 1⁄2 cup celery, finely chopped
- 4 ounces crumbled blue cheese
- 2 eggs, beaten
- 3⁄4 cup hot sauce (1/2 cup if you're want them milder)
- 4 cups Ritz cracker crumbs
- 4 -6 cups canola oil
directions
- Place cracker crumbs in a large bowl and set to the side.
- Cut up and dice chicken breasts into small pieces and put in a large bowl.
- Add the cream cheese and remaining ingredients to the chicken and mix well and refrigerate for about 30 minutes.
- Heat cooking oil to about 350 to 375 degrees in a 4 quart sauce pan. (Probably an older one you don't mind frying in -- ) If you have a deep fryer with a basket then excellent but who has that? LOL.
- With a regular spoon scoop out enough mixture to make a 1 1/2 inch ball and dip into the cracker crumbs and cover completely with crumbs. Then gently drop in hot oil until golden brown( about 2 to 3 minutes.).
- Remove from hot oil and place on vented pan with paper towels to drain oil.
- Let cool about 5 minutes and enjoy!
