Fried Nuggets Ingredients

Method

Fried Nuggets Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Coating

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

  2. 2

    Set Up Breading Station

    In three separate bowls, put the seasoned flour, beaten eggs, and bread crumbs.

  3. 3

    Coat the Nuggets

    Dip each piece of diced chicken first into the flour, then into the beaten eggs, and finally coat with the bread crumbs.

  4. 4

    Heat the Oil

    In a large frying 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, frying in batches to avoid overcrowding. Cook until golden brown, about 5-7 minutes per side.

  6. 6

    Drain and Serve

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