Step-by-Step Instructions for Cheesy Chicken Fritters
  1. Begin by finely dicing the raw boneless skinless chicken breasts using a food processor or a sharp knife.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the diced chicken with large eggs, light mayonnaise, fresh parsley, chives, basil, salt, garlic powder, black pepper, and dried dill weed.
  3. Sprinkle in the all-purpose flour and shredded 2% milk mozzarella cheese, stirring gently until combined.
  4. Preheat a large skillet over medium heat and add a drizzle of olive oil.
  5. Scoop about ¼ cup of the chicken mixture into the hot skillet, flattening each mound into a patty shape.
  6. Cook for approximately 3-4 minutes until golden brown, then flip and cook for another 3-4 minutes until fully cooked through.
  7. Continue with the remaining mixture and serve immediately.
