Step 1
Chop the chicken finely in a food processor. Then add salt, pepper, paprika, oregano, clarified butter, and ginger-garlic paste. Pulse everything together until well combined.
Step 2
Take a small amount of the mixture and flatten it in your hand. Place a bit of mozzarella cheese in the center, then shape it into a ball, sealing the cheese inside.
Step 3
Roll each chicken ball in all-purpose flour, then dip it into a beaten egg, and finally coat it evenly with breadcrumbs.
Step 4
Heat oil in a pan over medium heat. Fry the chicken bites until they’re golden brown and crispy on all sides.
Step 5
Once cooked, drain them on paper towels to remove any excess oil.
Step 6
Serve warm with your favorite dipping sauce and enjoy!
