Ingredients
For the Chicken Patties
- 2 cans chunk chicken breast, 50 ounces total, in water, fully cooked

- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup Parmesan cheese, grated

Instructions

Open the two cans of chunk chicken breast. Drain the chicken thoroughly in a colander. Rinse the chicken under running water to remove any 'cannedness'. Squeeze the juice from 1/2 lemon over the rinsed chicken. Use paper towels to press out any remaining excess fluid until the chicken is as dry as possible. Break up or 'smash' the chicken into small pieces.

Thoroughly mix all ingredients in the bowl until well combined and cohesive enough to form patties. Form the mixture into approximately 8 patties (about 4 patties per can of chicken).

Heat a large pan or skillet over medium heat. Add butter to the pan, ensuring enough to coat the bottom and prevent sticking, making the patties nice and buttery. Place the formed chicken patties into the hot pan and cook until they are golden brown and crispy on both sides, flipping once. This may need to be done in batches.
