Instructions

1 In a medium saucepan, melt 4 tablespoons of butter, add the onion, parsley, and
paprika. Cook until tender. Add the chicken and serrano ham, mix in well.
2 Add 1/4 cup of flour and whisk well. Whisk in the milk. Cook, whisking
continuously, to thicken. This could take about 10 minutes. You can rest for
afew seconds and keep on going.
3 Once thickened, place the mixture into a baking dish, spread it and flatten it
out. Place in the fridge for 2 hours.
4 After 2 hours, remove the baking dish from the refrigerator. Carefully remove,
whole, the chicken mixture that is now like a thicker consistency of jello.
Place it on a cutting board.
5 Cut the mixture into 1 1/2 inch thick slices or to taste in width. Shape into a
croquette shape. Think of a cheesestick.
6 In a bowl, whisk the eggs. In a separate bowl, add breadcrumbs. Dredge the
croquettes first in the egg and then roll in the breadcrumb. Arrange the
croquettes on a baking sheet and refrigerate for up to 2 hours.

At this point you can also freeze them to fry later. They will be good for up to
3 months.
7 In a deep skillet, heat about 1/2 inch of vegetable or corn oil over medium low
heat. Fry the croquettes in batches, rotating them on all sides until they are
golden brown. Enjoy!
