I made these nuggets last night for the boys. It made plenty to feed three boys with VERY healthy appetites. The nuggets remind me of Chick-Fil-A. They have about the same amount of breading and a similar taste. Maybe a little less sweet. Juicy and DELISH! (Sorry no pic... Will take one next time I make these.)
4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
1 1/2 Tbsp of Lawry's Season Salt
1/4 tsp white pepper, finely ground
1 cup of AP flour
1/2 cup of plain bread crumbs
Enough oil for frying (I used canola)
Rinse and pat dry the chicken. Dice into 1" cubes. Season with Lawry's and white pepper. Toss to get even distribution of the seasoning.
Heat oil over medium-medium high heat. (I have an electric stove and on a scale of 1-10, used 6 or 7.) **Fabulous Tip** When heating oil for pan frying, use a wooden spoon to test when the oil is hot enough. Insert the tip of the handle in the oil, if it bubbles, you are ready to cook!
In a shallow dish, mix flour and breadcrumbs well.
Coat a small batch of nuggets in the flour mixture then fry. Fry over medium heat until golden brown. Turning as needed. Probably 3-4 minutes total cooking time per batch. Do not over crowd the pan. Repeat coating and frying until you're done. If you're like me, you won't be able to stay out of them while you are cooking. ;) Enjoy!
