Description

Brazilian chicken rissoles sizzle with authentic flavor in this quick air fryer method. Crispy exterior and juicy interior promise a delightful meal you’ll savor from the first bite.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb (450g) ground chicken
  • 1 cup fresh breadcrumbs
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/4 cup fresh parsley or cilantro, chopped
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt (or to taste)
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper (or to taste)
  • Olive oil spray

Instructions

  1. In a spacious mixing vessel, thoroughly blend ground chicken with breadcrumbs, aromatic powders, whisked egg, verdant herbs, and seasoning until uniformly incorporated.
  2. Craft compact, uniform patties approximately one inch in thickness, ensuring consistent shape for even cooking.
  3. Initialize air fryer at 375°F, allowing appliance to fully preheat for optimal culinary performance.
  4. Delicately mist air fryer basket with olive oil spray, strategically positioning rissoles without overcrowding to facilitate proper circulating heat.
  5. Position rissoles in preheated chamber, maintaining calculated spacing between each patty.
  6. Execute cooking process for 12-15 minutes, rotating midway to guarantee comprehensive golden-brown exterior and consistent internal temperature.
  7. Verify doneness by confirming internal temperature has reached precisely 165°F, indicating safe consumption.
  8. Extract rissoles from air fryer, allowing momentary resting period to stabilize internal moisture.
  9. Present immediately alongside preferred complementary dipping accompaniment, preserving optimal temperature and textural integrity.

Notes

  • Check meat mixture consistency by gently pressing patties together, ensuring they hold shape without crumbling during cooking.
  • Experiment with alternative herbs like thyme or rosemary for unique flavor profiles that complement ground chicken.
  • Use gluten-free breadcrumbs to transform recipe into a celiac-friendly meal without compromising texture or taste.
  • Pat chicken mixture gently when forming patties to prevent dense, tough rissoles and maintain a light, tender interior.
