Croquetas

Ingredients

• Ham, 40% of the total meat weight
• Pollo guisado, 60% of the total meat weight
• Bread crumbs, enough to coat
• Eggs, beaten, enough to coat
• Vegetable oil, enough for shallow-frying

Preparation:

1. Process the ham and chicken separately into roughly 3 mm pieces, then mix them together.

2. Whisk eggs and put bread crumbs in a bowl.

3. Form the meat into small logs, coat each one in egg, and roll it in bread crumbs.

4. Heat the vegetable oil in a cast-iron skillet. Fry the croquetas until browned, turning so all sides cook evenly.
