Chicken Nuggets

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken

    Cut the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces and season with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika.

  2. 2

    Set Up Breading Station

    In three separate bowls, place flour in the first bowl, beaten eggs in the second, and breadcrumbs mixed with a pinch of salt and pepper in the third.

  3. 3

    Bread the Chicken

    Dip each piece of chicken into the flour, then the egg, and finally the breadcrumbs, ensuring each piece is well-coated.

  4. 4

    Heat the Oil

    In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium-high heat until hot.

  5. 5

    Fry the Nuggets

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

  6. 6

    Drain and Serve

    Remove the chicken nuggets from the oil and drain on paper towels. Serve hot with your favorite dipping sauce.
