Chicken Cakes with Remoulade
All I can say is that this recipe BLEW OUR SOCKS OFF! It was so flavorful and the remoulade just took it all the way over the top. This was one of those meals that we talked about for days, lol. It tastes and looks like something you would be served at a nice restaurant and believe it or not - it's made with canned chicken! You HAVE TO TRY this one for yourself!

Note
My hat is off to Melissa's Southern Style Kitchen - she really outdid herself with this recipe! I tweaked it very little to my own tastes and ingredients that I had on hand, but it was just so amazing! Be sure to follow her on Pinterest for more delicious southern recipes!
