Smoky Chicken Corn Cakes, This recipe has become a family favorite! We will be having this often during football season! Great corn cakes!!! Note — Turn down the heat in this dish by omitting the chipotle or reducing it by half and using just 1 tablespoon of the adobo sauce Adapted from Real Simple com, Great (with modifications) I just used boneless skinless thighs which I steamed then shredded used white onion which I sauteed first I did not have cilantro but I added some fresh spinach for color instead I added chopped black olives and an avocado (would have put it only on top but it had brown spots) I also had to used canned tomato (drained) because the fresh ones were not appealing I also added cumin and some garlic powder It was very tasty For the corn cakes, I had to use grits rather than cornmeal, used two whole eggs plus two whites, used cottage cheese rather than ricotta, and only had half the amount of corn These were amazing because they were actually easy to cook without using a ton of oil I have a different recipe for something similar that I always have difficulty with I served the chicken part warm and served it all with grated sharp cheddar Thanks!, Great (with modifications) I just used boneless skinless thighs which I steamed then shredded used white onion which I sauteed first I did not have cilantro but I added some fresh spinach for color instead I added chopped black olives and an avocado (would have put it only on top but it had brown spots) I also had to used canned tomato (drained) because the fresh ones were not appealing I also added cumin and some garlic powder It was very tasty For the corn cakes, I had to use grits rather than cornmeal, used two whole eggs plus two whites, used cottage cheese rather than ricotta, and only had half the amount of corn These were amazing because they were actually easy to cook without using a ton of oil I have a different recipe for something similar that I always have difficulty with I served the chicken part warm and served it all with grated sharp cheddar Thanks!
