Chicken scotch eggs Recipe

Recipe By Slurrp

Chicken scotch eggs are a delicious twist on the classic scotch eggs. Instead of using sausage meat, these eggs are wrapped in a flavorful chicken mixture and then coated in breadcrumbs. The result is a crispy and savory outer layer with a moist and tender chicken filling. These make a great appetizer or snack, and can be served hot or cold. They are perfect for picnics, parties, or as a tasty lunch option. Enjoy these chicken scotch eggs on their own or with a side of dipping sauce.
