Ingredients

Method

Directions

  1. 1

    Marinate the Chicken

    Cut the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces and place them in a bowl. Pour the brandy over the chicken and let it marinate for at least 30 minutes.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Breading

    In a separate bowl, mix together the flour, cornstarch, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika.

  3. 3

    Coat the Chicken

    In another bowl, beat the eggs. Dip each marinated chicken piece first into the egg, then into the flour mixture, ensuring they are well-coated.

  4. 4

    Heat the Oil

    In a deep pan, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until hot.

  5. 5

    Fry the Nuggets

    Carefully add the coated chicken pieces to the hot oil in batches. Fry until golden brown and cooked through, about 4-5 minutes per side.

  6. 6

    Drain and Serve

    Remove the fried chicken nuggets from the oil and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil. Serve hot.
