  • 2. Set up your dredging station. Bowl #1 Flour (can season with salt and pepper) Bowl #2 One egg mixed with 6 Tbs of water Bowl #3 Breadcrumbs, salt, pepper, granulate garlic, parsley and dill
  • 3. Preheat Deep non stick pan to 375 degrees ( I use my electric skillet but any large skillet will do). Drain chicken in a colander. Dip in flour, then egg wash then breadcrumbs. Set aside and repeat with remaining chicken pieces
  • 4. When oil is heated fry chicken for about 3-4 minutes per side till golden brown. I did this in two batches. Place first batch on paper towel to drain excess oil. Let chicken sit for about 5 minutes before serving....this helps to set the crust.

CHICKEN NUGGETS WITH HERB BREADING

Provided by Pierre Franey

Categories     dinner, main course

Time 25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 whole skinless, boneless chicken breasts, about 3/4 pound each
1 large egg
2 tablespoons water
Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
2 cups fine fresh bread crumbs
6 fresh sage leaves, finely chopped, or 2 teaspoons dried
4 sprigs fresh thyme, finely chopped, or 2 teaspoons dried
1 teaspoon cumin
1 cup corn or vegetable oil for frying
Tomato and horseradish sauce (see recipe)

Steps:

  • Split the chicken breasts in half down the center. Trim them neatly to remove peripheral membranes and bits of fat. Cut each breast half into six pieces of equal size.
  • Put the egg, water, salt and pepper in a bowl and beat well to blend.
  • Put the bread crumbs on a large platter. Add the sage, thyme, cumin and pepper, and blend well.
  • Add the pieces of chicken to the egg mixture and toss to coat well. Drain off the excess. Transfer the chicken pieces to the bread-crumb mixture and toss to coat thoroughly. Put the coated pieces in another dish, separating them so that they do not touch.
  • Heat the oil for deep frying in a cast-iron skillet. There should be about 1 inch of oil. When hot (at 360 degrees) but not smoking, add about one-third of the chicken pieces. Do not overcrowd. Cook, stirring with a slotted or perforated spoon so that the pieces brown evenly. It will take about 3 minutes until they are golden brown.
  • Transfer the nuggets to paper towels and drain.
  • Continue adding batches of chicken pieces and cook until all the chicken is done. Serve with tomato-horseradish sauce.
