Crispy Chicken Fritters with Sourdough Starter

This is a great use for extra sourdough starter.  I have only tried this recipe with active starter, but I'm pretty sure inactive starter would work as well.  My starter is kept at 100% hydration, which means I feed it equal parts flour and water by weight.  This creates a starter with a thick gloppy consistency.

Crispy Chicken Fritters with Sourdough Starter

  • 1 lb ground chicken
  • 1 egg
  • 2 T. mayonnaise
  • 50 g sourdough starter at 100% hydration (about 1/4 cup)
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheese
  • 1 minced garlic clove
  • 1 T. minced chives, green onions, or parsley
  • 3/4 tsp salt
  • 1/8 tsp pepper

Mix all ingredients.

Heat 1 T. of your favorite cooking oil in large skillet.

Drop about 1/4 cup of fritter mixture into hot skillet spread about 1/4 thick.  Cook until golden brown on both sides and done in the center. 

Serve with sour cream and fresh herbs (or ranch!).

Makes about 8 patties.
