Ingredients (serves 4):
- 2 large potatoes, peeled and grated
- 1/2 cup cooked chicken, shredded
- 1/4 cup buffalo sauce
- 1/4 cup blue cheese, crumbled
- 1 egg, beaten
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- Vegetable oil, for frying
Cooking Tips:
- Be sure to squeeze out as much moisture as possible from the grated potatoes before mixing them with the other ingredients. This will help ensure that your latkes are crispy and golden brown.
- Use a non-stick skillet or a well-seasoned cast iron skillet for frying to prevent the latkes from sticking.
- Keep the latkes warm in a 200°F oven while you fry the remaining batches.
Instructions:
1. In a large bowl, mix together the grated potatoes, shredded chicken, buffalo sauce, blue cheese, beaten egg, flour, salt, and pepper until well combined.
2. Heat about 1/4 inch of vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
3. Using a spoon or your hands, form the potato mixture into small patties and carefully place them in the hot oil.
4. Fry the latkes for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and crispy.
5. Remove the latkes from the skillet and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain off any excess oil.
6. Serve the Buffalo Chicken Latkes hot, garnished with additional blue cheese and chopped green onions, if desired.
