½ cup minced celery

¼ cup minced Vidalia onion

¼ cup minced green bell pepper

2 large eggs

2 Tbsp. heavy cream

½ tsp. kosher salt

½ tsp. freshly ground black pepper

4 Tbsp. (½ stick) unsalted butter

Method

In a medium bowl, mix together 3 cups chopped cooked chicken (no skin; a rotisserie bird works well here), ½ cup minced celery, ¼ cup minced Vidalia onion, and ¼ cup minced green bell pepper.

In a small bowl, stir together 2 large eggs and 2 Tbsp. heavy cream. Fold it into the chicken and vegetables and season with ½ tsp. kosher salt and ½ tsp. freshly ground black pepper. The mixture will be thick. Form the mixture into 4 round patties 3" across.

In a heavy skillet, melt 4 Tbsp. (½ stick) unsalted butter over medium heat just until foamy. Add the croquettes and cook until golden brown on both sides, about 3 minutes per side. Serve hot.
