These homemade chicken nuggets are crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside, and seasoned to perfection. Whether you air fry, bake, or fry them, they’re a guaranteed crowd-pleaser—perfect for dipping, snacking, or sharing!
Ingredients
3 chicken breasts
1 egg
1 cup of milk
1 tsp white vinegar or lemon juice
2 tsp Blow My Coals
½ cup Fry-Yay
Golden Arches to serve
Directions
Dice the chicken breast into small cubes and add them to the bowl of a food processor or a high-powered blender.
Add the Blow My Coals seasoning and eggs to the food processor.
Process for about 1 minute, or until the mixture reaches a smooth, mince-like texture.
Spread Fry-Yay evenly across a plate to prepare for coating the nuggets.
In a separate bowl, mix the milk and vinegar to create a quick buttermilk.
With wet hands, shape heaped tablespoons of the chicken mixture into nugget-sized shapes.
Place the nuggets in the freezer for about 15 minutes to firm up.
Once firm, dip the nuggets into the buttermilk mixture, then lightly coat them in Fry-Yay by placing them on the prepared plate.
At this point, you can either freeze the nuggets for later or cook them straight away. To cook, deep fry the nuggets until golden and crispy, or air fry at 180°C for about 12-15 minutes, turning halfway for even cooking. Alternatively, oven bake by placing the nuggets on a lined baking tray and baking for 20-25 minutes at 200°C, turning halfway through.
Serve hot with Golden Arches dipping sauce and enjoy!
