Creamy Chicken & Cheese Nut-Crusted Balls
"Elevate your hors d'oeuvres game with these sophisticated, bite-sized savory truffles that perfectly balance a velvety chicken center with a shatteringly crisp nut crust."
Instructions
Add the minced chicken, cream cheese, mustard, lemon juice, and a small pinch of salt to a food processor. Blend until completely smooth and well combined.
Transfer the mixture to a bowl, cover, and refrigerate for about 1 hour, or until firm enough to shape easily.
Using a tablespoon, portion the chilled mixture and roll into small, even balls with lightly damp hands.
Place the crushed salty nuts in a shallow dish. Roll each ball gently in the nut mixture, pressing lightly so the coating adheres evenly.
Arrange the coated balls on a serving plate, cover, and refrigerate for another hour before serving to allow the flavors and texture to set.
