#28 chicken croquettes

This is great for all the leftovers in your fridge, throw everything in!

1 leftover cooked chicken breast
1/4 cup leftover mashed potatoes
1/2 a (leftover) serrano chili
1/4-1/2 cup leftover chopped onions
1-2 cloves garlic
1-2 oz cheese

1/4 cup flour
1/2 liquid (milk/veg broth)
breadcrumbs

Cook onion and garlic in olive oil ~5 mins, add flour, cook for another 2-3 mins, stir in liquids, cook until it forms a paste and then about 3 mins more. Add flour mixture plus all the leftovers into a food processor and blend until smooth. Make balls, coat in bread crumbs and fry/bake until golden (I didn't have enough oil on hand so I baked them and they were delicious).
