Ingredients are subject to availability at local stores. Unavailable items will be automatically substituted at best-effort.

Optional: Add garlic powder, paprika, or Italian seasoning for extra flavor.

Directions

  1. Preheat: Preheat the oven to 400°F or the air fryer to 375°F. If using the oven, line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly spray it with oil.
  2. Make the Mixture: Add the well-drained CANNED CHICKEN, EGG, and CHEDDAR CHEESE to a bowl. Mix until everything is thoroughly combined and the mixture holds together.
  3. Shape the Fries: Scoop about 2 tablespoons of the chicken mixture at a time and form it into fry-shaped sticks. Arrange the fries with a little space between each one.
  4. Cook: For the oven, bake for 18–20 minutes, flipping halfway through. For the air fryer, cook for 12–15 minutes, turning or shaking halfway through, until the exterior is golden and crisp.
  5. Cool & Serve: Allow the chicken fries to cool for a few minutes so they can firm up before serving. Enjoy them warm on their own or with your favorite dipping sauce.

Recipe Notes

Drain Well: Drain the canned chicken thoroughly before mixing. Excess moisture can make the chicken fries harder to shape and keep them from crisping as well.

Season Them: Garlic powder, paprika, or Italian seasoning can be mixed in for additional flavor.

Cheese Options: Mozzarella or pepper jack can be substituted for the cheddar for a different flavor.
