frying oil, or rather light extra virgin olive oil, definitely better
Instructions
Blanch the spinach in boiling for 5 minutes, then drain them and let them cool down. Once cold, squeeze them out and chop them finely with a knife. Cube the raw chicken breast and blend it.
In a bowl, mix the chopped spinach, the minced chicken breast, one egg and two tablespoons of breadcrumbs. Use your hands for a better result. Season with salt and pepper. Shape flat patties with your hands: I made 8 patties with a 5 cm diameter.
Coat the patties in breadcrumbs, then pass them in a slightly beaten egg, then again in breadcrumbs. Deep fry in hot extra virgin olive oil for about 5 minutes, turning them after 3 minutes.
Leave them for a minute on a paper towel to remove extra olive oil, season them with salt and serve immediately, until warm. As said, they are good even eaten cold with friends during a picnic.
