Crispy Chicken Nuggets

Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Crispy Chicken Nuggets.

1. Step 1

   Start by rinsing your chicken breasts under cold water, then gently pat them dry with paper towels.

2. Step 2

   Next, chop the chicken into bite-sized cubes, aiming for pieces about one inch wide and half an inch thick.

3. Step 3

   Now, let’s get that deep fryer ready! Fill it with corn oil, making sure it’s no more than one-third full, and heat the oil to a medium temperature.

4. Step 4

   While the oil is warming up, grab a small bowl and whisk together a beaten egg and a splash of water until well combined.

5. Step 5

   Gradually mix in the flour, toasted sesame seeds, and a pinch of salt, stirring until you have a smooth and creamy batter that’s just begging to coat those chicken pieces.

6. Step 6

   Once your batter is ready, dip each chicken cube into it, letting any excess drip off before carefully placing them into the hot oil.

7. Step 7

   It’s best to fry them in small batches to ensure they cook evenly and get that perfect golden-brown color.

8. Step 8

   In about four minutes, your chicken nuggets should be beautifully crispy and cooked through.

9. Step 9

   To check if they’re done, simply take one out of the oil and cut it open; it should be juicy and tender inside.

10. Step 10

    When they’re ready, transfer the nuggets to a plate lined with paper towels to soak up any extra oil.

    Enjoy your homemade chicken nuggets, perfect for dipping or snacking anytime!.
