Tarragon Chicken Croquettes
Hey Sunshine!
I started making a variety of croquettes about 15 years ago. They are so easy, healthy, and versatile. You can use any type of vegetable and all sorts of spices in your creations. I often make them with fish like salmon or tuna, but this recipe is for a tarragon chicken croquettes. I love tarragon chicken salad so I transformed the same flavors into these delicious croquettes.
Low in WW points and calories, they make a perfect main dish that pair well with any healthy sides of your choosing.

2 red peppers, diced
4 eggs
1 cup breadcrumbs
1 tbsp fresh tarragon, minced (or 1 tsp dried)
2 tsp garlic powder
2 tsp onion powder

Oil Spray
Directions
In a large mixing bowl, combine all of the ingredients above and mix well with clean hands.
Spray large frying pan with oil. Using ¼ cup measuring cup, scoop out a level ¼ cup of the mixture. Place in the frying pan and flatten with a spatula into a pancake shape. You could also make the patties with your hands and place into the pan. Cook approximately 5 minutes on each side until golden brown, adding some spray oil to the tops before flipping them over to cook the other side. Makes approximately 20 croquettes.
Serve on a bed of lettuce. I drizzled some light ranch dressing on these, but you can use any type of dressing, dipping saice, or ketchup that works for you!
