Ingredients

  • 2 lbs. Chicken, ground
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 tsp. salt
  • 1 c. corn starch
  • 1 c. water
  • 1 1/2 Tbsp. onion powder
  • 1 1/2 Tbsp. garlic powder
  • 1 Tbsp. paprika
  • 1 1/2 tsp. pepper
  • 1 c. flour

Directions

  1. In a food processor or Vitamix, blend the chicken, 1 egg and salt until chicken resembles a paste.

  2. Form the chicken into tablespoon sized nuggets. Dredge the nuggets in cornstarch to fully coat. Set aside.

  3. In a mixing bowl, mix the flour, seasonings, egg and water. Mix well until a smooth batter form.

  4. Place a nugget on a fork to dip into the batter. Let excess batter drip off.

  5. In a saucepan or deep skillet, bring oil to 350° and place battered nuggets into fry. Fry for 3 minutes until nuggets are floating and remove to a paper towel to let rest. Return nuggets to oil for 2 more minutes to double fry.
