Description

These crispy chicken morsels with a stringy mozzarella heart are a real treat! I often prepare them for a tasty appetizer or as a quick and tasty second course. The crispy panko breading, enriched with oregano, makes the chicken irresistible. The mozzarella, melting inside, creates a contrast of textures and flavors that wins everyone over. The preparation is simple and quick, perfect for when you have little time but don't want to give up something special. Ideal for an informal dinner with friends or for a festive buffet. A tip? Serve them hot, freshly fried, for an even more delicious experience!
