This recipe was right on the money. Next time I’m going to use a breast filet so I can put it on a buttered bun with a pickle or two.
Ingredients
- 8 chicken tenderloins, cut into bite-size pieces
- 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup powdered sugar
- 4 teaspoons salt
- 3 teaspoons black pepper
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- Canola oil, for frying
Directions
1
In a deep skillet or deep fryer, heat oil to 375F.
2
In a ziplock bag, combine the flour, sugar, salt, pepper and paprika.
3
Seal the bag and shake to combine well.
4
Add the chicken bites to the bag, close it and shake until all are coated well.
5
Remove the nuggets from the flour mixture, shaking off the excess flour.
6
Place the nuggets on a plate in a single layer.
7
Line another plate with paper towels.
8
Fry 10 to 12 nuggets at a time in the oil for approximately 5 minutes, or until the juices run clear.
9
Remove the nuggets from the oil and set on the lined plate to drain.
10
Continue until all nuggets have been cooked.
11
Serve hot with the dipping sauce of your choice.
