Recipe Instructions
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Step 2
Form chicken mixture around cheese cubes, forming 2-inch balls. Place on a plate.
Step 3
Heat 1 1/2 inches of oil in a deep skillet to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Step 4
Fry balls in hot oil until golden brown, about 4 minutes. Drain on paper towels and place in a baking dish.
Step 5
Bake in the preheated oven until cooked through and cheese is soft, about 20 minutes. Cool briefly before serving.
Step 6
Combine chicken, ham, and egg in a large bowl until well-blended. Gradually add bread crumbs until mixture loses its stickiness and can be easily formed into balls. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
