Chicken Latkes

A tasty chicken latke recipe, flavoured with dill and served with a tzazikki sauce and your favourite salad. this is a great brunch, lunch or mid-week dinner dish. and because the potato and chicken are cooked together, a light salad not only complements the crispness of the latkes, but is an ample accompaniment.
