Sweet Chicken Nuggets

Ingredients

  • 2-3 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 cup milk (2% or higher)
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 1/4 cups all purpose flour
  • 3 tbsp. powdered sugar
  • 1/2 tbsp. corn starch
  • 2 1/2 tsp. table salt
  • 1 tsp. fresh ground black pepper
  • vegetable or peanut oil

Preparation

Step 1

Cube chicken breasts into bite size pieces, trimming away any excess skin that might
be hanging on.
In a medium bowl, whisk together milk and egg.
Place cubed chicken into milk/egg mixture.
If you have time, cover it and let it hang out in the refrigerator for a few hours.
This helps to make the chicken a bit more moist and tender.
When ready to cook, start preheating oil in your fryer or deep pot to 375F degrees.

In a gallon size Ziploc bag, combine flour, powdered sugar, corn starch, salt & pepper. Give it a good shake to combine ingredients.
Add in cubed chicken, small batches at a time, to the flour mixture.
Seal and shake until chicken is coated.

In small batches, place chicken into fryer. Cook until golden brown.
About 4-6 minutes. Remove and drain on paper towels.
Continue with above steps until all your chicken is cooked.
Serve with your favorite sauce.
