Ingredients
2 skinless and boneless chicken breasts 1 cup milk 1 egg 1 1/4 cups flour 2 Tbsp. powdered sugar 2 tsp salt 1 tsp pepper peanut oil (is best) or canola oil
Honey Mustard Dipping Sauce
1/2 cup mayonnaise 2 Tablespoons yellow mustard 1 Tablespoon Dijon mustard 3 Tablespoons Honey 1/2 Tablespoon lemon juice
Directions
In a medium bowl whisk the egg and stir in the milk. Trim any fat away from chicken and cut chicken into bite size pieces. Place chicken in milk mixture and cover; let it marinate for 2-4 hours in the fridge. This will make the chicken very nice and tender. In a gallon size resealable baggie combine flour, powdered sugar, salt and pepper. Seal and shake to combine. Place about 2 inches of oil in a medium deep pot. Over medium high heat heat oil until hot. If using a thermometer let the temperature reach 375°. If you don't have a thermometer, test the oil by dropping a few drops of water into it. You want it to sizzle and not pop too much. Adjust your heat if necessary. Using a fork or tongs, remove cut chicken from milk mixture and place in the flour mixture. Seal and shake until nuggets are completely coated. Place about 6-8 nuggets into hot oil and let them cook until golden brown, turning half way through once the edge of your chicken starts to turn white, about 1 minute each side. Always double check to see if any chicken you make is cooked through. Just make a tiny cut to see if it's pink. Remove and drain on a paper towel. Repeat until all nuggets are cooked.
For the sauce, combine all ingredients; mix till smooth. Enjoy! |
