Turkey Croquettes
DCHMKH
"This is a great recipe to use up leftover turkey or chicken. It does not taste anything like leftovers. Makes about six 2-inch croquette balls. Definitely need to double or triple recipe for large groups as I can eat 2 croquettes easily."

Ready In
- Place bread in a blender and blend until soft crumbs form. Place bread crumbs in a shallow bowl.
- Heat butter in a saucepan over medium heat until melted. Stir flour into melted butter until dissolved. Mix milk and broth into butter-flour mixture; cook and stir until mixture is thick, about 5 minutes. Remove saucepan from heat and cool mixture.
- Mix turkey, parsley, rosemary, salt, and pepper into cooled mixture. Form turkey mixture into balls. Place balls on a plate and refrigerate until chilled, at least 3 hours.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Dip balls in the beaten egg, allowing excess to drip back into bowl. Press balls into bread crumbs until coated. Arrange balls on a baking sheet.
- Bake in the preheated oven until cooked through and browned, 25 to 30 minutes.
Footnotes
- Cook's Notes:
- Chicken can be substituted for the turkey and dried parley can be substituted for the fresh.
- You can spice up even more with thyme, sage, poultry seasoning, and onion powder if you like.
- We like to make a bunch and freeze them for future meals.
- Tip
- Aluminum foil helps keep food moist, ensures it cooks evenly, keeps leftovers fresh, and makes clean-up easy.

Have not had these since stores stopped selling them. This recipe was terrific. I made them like meatballs instead of patties. Terrific. So easy to make.

I made this for dinner and they were a huge hit! I’m not a big turkey fan myself, but even I liked these. I used sourdough breadcrumbs and added some spices to the breadcrumbs as well, and it tu...

I liked it a lot and would make it again. It's a great thing to make with leftover turkey. It's a bit bland on its own and needs a sauce or a flavorful side dish to make it fabulous.
