This is a great recipe to use up left over from a Sunday roast!! Air fryer chicken croquettes are one of my all time favourite comfort food, I love their crispy exterior and creamy, flavourful filling.

Step 1

Start by mixing your mashed potatoes, onion powder, dried parsley and season well with salt and pepper in a large bowl. Grind the breadcrumbs in a blender.

Step 2

Arrange three bowls on your surface. Then put your plain flour in the first bowl, beaten eggs in the second bowl, and breadcrumbs in the third bowl. Line them up in the order of flour fist, then eggs, and finally the breadcrumbs. So using a spoon, take a portion of the potato mix in your hand and flatten it in your palm. Then create a small, thin disk, about 6-7 cm.

Step 3

So place some of your shredded chicken in the centre of the disk and carefully fold the edges of the mashed potato disk over the chicken to seal and cover it completely, gently shape it into the ball and roll it between your hands until it is smooth and even, trying to make sure there are no openings or cracks. Start with dipping the ball into the flour mix, making sure you have an even coverage. Follow, with your egg and finally into your fine breadcrumbs.

Step 4

Continue with the rest of the mix, making sure each ball is thoroughly covered. Place into your air fryer and spay with your cooking spray. Set your air fryer to 185c and cook for 12 to 15 mins or until golden brown.

Step 5

So depending on the size of your balls, you may need to adjust the time. But if you find that balls are not browning, just spray with more oil.

Step 6

Serve your air fryer chicken croquettes as a starter with a dipping sauce or as a main dish with salad or fries.
