Ingredients:  
Ingredients:  
6 large chicken breasts, skinned and boned

Directions:
Melt 6 Tbsp. butter and allow it to cool while you grind the chicken breasts. Mix the ground chicken, melted butter, salt, and pepper in a bowl and refrigerate for a hour. Put the flour on a piece of aluminum foil. Mix the eggs, water, and oil on a plate. Pour the bread crumbs on another piece of foil. Remove the chicken mixture from the refrigerator and form it into about 20 medium small patties, about ¾ inch thick. Coat the patties on both sides with the flour, then the egg mixture, and then the bread crumbs. Refrigerate for at least an hour. Make desired sauce.

Heat the remaining butter in a large skillet (350 degrees in an electric pan) and cook patties for about 10 minutes on each side. Pass the desired sauce in a gravy boat to be spooned over the chicken patties.
