Directions

In a medium-size saucepan, melt 3 tablespoon of butter over medium heat.

Add flour and cook, stirring, for 1 to 2 minutes without browning.

Gradually whisk in milk and broth and cook, stirring constantly, until smooth and thickened.

Remove from heat; let cool for 5 minutes.

In a large bowl, combine chicken, 1 cup bread crumbs, parsley, salt and eggs.

Mix well. Pour in sauce, blend, and cover. Chill for 2 hours, until set.

Preheat oven to 350℉ (180℃). Combine Parmesan cheese and remaining ¼ c. bread crumbs in a shallow dish.

Shape chicken mixture into 2½ to 3 inch balls, then roll into ovals (makes about 8).

Roll croquettes in bread crumb mixture.

Arrange croquettes in a greased 12x8x2-inch baking dish . Melt remaining 2 tablespoon butter and drizzle over croquettes. Bake 30 minutes, until golden brown.
