- Heat 2 Tbsp. extra virgin olive oil in a large skillet over moderately-high heat. Add in 8 of the cakes and fry, turning once till browned, about 3 min per side. Transfer to a baking sheet. Repeat with remaining chicken cakes. Bake the cakes for about 10 to 12 min till hard and done. Serve hot.

- Comments: These will remind you of crab cakes (no crab, of course); this recipe is well worth the effort. Smaller cake would make a wonderful appetizer for a party and larger one for a luncheon entree. ...Peggy
