1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
Adds subtle tang and depth without tasting “mustardy.”
1 large egg
Acts as a binder to hold the fritters together.
⅛ teaspoon dried thyme
Just enough herbal warmth to enhance the chicken.
¼ cup breadcrumbs
Helps with structure and crispiness.
¼ teaspoon onion powder
Adds savory sweetness without chunks of onion.
¼ teaspoon garlic powder
A must for classic comfort-food flavor.
Salt and black pepper, to taste
Essential for balancing all the flavors.
Oil for frying (vegetable or olive oil)
Enough to lightly coat the bottom of the skillet.
