- Fold in the chicken, the cooled corn and shallot mixture, the parmesan and the mozzarella with a spatula until evenly mixed.
- Heat about 6 cups of canola oil in a deep pan or large pot over medium heat to 300°F, with about 1½ inches of oil.
- Drop spoonfuls of batter into the hot oil, spaced apart, 8 to 10 at a time. Fry 5 to 7 minutes, until golden and crispy.
- Lift the fritters out with a mesh skimmer and place on a wire rack over paper towels to drain and cool. Serve warm with more ranch dip.
