1. Prepare the Chicken Mixture
In a large bowl, combine the shredded chicken, Dijon mustard, egg, breadcrumbs, thyme, onion powder, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Mix thoroughly until well combined.
2. Shape the Fritters
Using your hands, form the chicken mixture into small, evenly sized patties.
3. Heat the Oil
Heat a generous amount of oil in a skillet over medium heat until it shimmers.
4. Cook the Fritters
Fry the patties in the skillet for about 3-4 minutes per side, or until they develop a golden-brown, crispy exterior.
5. Serve and Enjoy
Once cooked, transfer the fritters to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil. Serve immediately with your favorite dipping sauce and enjoy the crispy, savory goodness!
