1

Cut the boneless chicken into small pieces and place it in a pan.

2

Add 1 tablespoon of salt and 1 tablespoon of ginger garlic paste to the chicken.

3

Mix the chicken with the spices and cook on low flame for about 15 minutes, covered.

4

After 15 minutes, remove the lid and let the chicken cook on high flame until the water evaporates.

5

Once the water has evaporated and the chicken is soft, transfer it to a plate and let it cool under a fan to dry excess moisture.

6

Once cooled, grind the chicken into a fine powder in a grinder.

7

Add grated Amul cheese cubes to the chicken powder. You can also use sliced cheese or mozzarella cheese.

8

Add 1/2 teaspoon of salt and black pepper to the mixture and mix well until combined.

9

Form the mixture into balls, ensuring there are no cracks, similar to making gulab jamun.

10

Prepare a batter by mixing 1/2 cup flour with water, adding salt and black pepper to taste.

11

Dip each chicken cheese ball into the batter, then coat with bread crumbs.

12

Once all the chicken cheese balls are prepared, they can be stored in the freezer for up to 2 months.

13

To fry, heat oil on medium flame, then increase to high flame after adding the balls.

14

Fry the balls until golden brown and crispy, turning occasionally to ensure even cooking.

15

Remove the crispy chicken cheese balls and serve with chutney, mayonnaise, or sauce.
