There are one of basic recipes for chicken meat in ham press -
1 kg of chicken breast
15 g salt
1 g cure #1
1 g black pepper
1 g white pepper
1 g nutmeg
100 ml water
15 g gelatin if you want jelly or 30 g potato starch if you want without jelly
If you want use only white breast meat -
cut meat in 1" cubes (2 cm x 2 cm), using meat tenderizer smash cubes a little. Then mix salt, cure, spices and water. Mix it by hand or food processor until is very sticky. Cover and keep 24 h in refrigerator. After that add and mix gelatin or potato starch. Good mixing required - better gluing pieces together.
Next step is to pack mixture in baking bag then in press ham (easier removing meat after process)
Press ham with meat put in hot water - 78-80*C (172-174 F) until internal temp reaches 70*C

If you want use breast(50%) and other chicken meat (50%)-
Cut breast in pieces as described above, boneless things, drumstick, skin - grind thru plate 3 mm( ground meat is bonding agent in that case). Then follow instructions.
