Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken

    Cut the boneless chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces.

  2. 2

    Set up Breading Station

    In three separate bowls, place the flour, beaten eggs, and breadcrumbs mixed with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika.

  3. 3

    Bread the Chicken

    Dip each chicken piece into the flour, then into the egg, and finally coat it with the breadcrumb mixture.

  4. 4

    Heat Oil

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

  5. 5

    Fry the Nuggets

    Carefully place the breaded chicken pieces into the hot oil. Fry them in batches for about 4-5 minutes on each side or until golden brown and cooked through.

  6. 6

    Drain and Serve

    Remove the chicken nuggets from the oil and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil. Serve hot with your favorite dipping sauce.
