Categories     main-dish

Time 1h5m

Yield 24 nuggets

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 cup crunchy corn cereal (recommended: Cap'n Crunch)
1 cup crispy rice cereal (recommended: Rice Krispies)
4 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
12 chicken tenders, halved
2 eggs, beaten
2 1/2 cups canola oil
Green Onion Honey Dip, recipe follows
1 cup sour cream
2 tablespoons honey
2 tablespoons chopped green onions
1 teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • Put the 2 cereals into a gallon-sized bag and seal. Place on a flat surface and, using a rolling pin, crush the cereal until it's still slightly chunky. Pour into a medium sized bowl and add the flour, salt and pepper and mix to combine.
  • Dip the chicken pieces into the beaten eggs, 1 at a time, and transfer to the breading mix. Coat well and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
  • Pour the oil into a large saucepan and place over medium-high heat for 2 to 3 minutes. Test the oil by dropping a bread cube in; if it browns within 1 minute the oil is ready. Drop the chicken nuggets into the hot oil, 4 pieces at a time, and cook 2 minutes, or until the breading is golden and the chicken is cooked through. Repeat with the remaining chicken nuggets. Keep warm in a low oven until ready to serve.
  • Place all ingredients in a small bowl and mix until well combined. Refrigerate until ready to use.

SOUR CREAM & ONION CHICKEN NUGGETS



Sour Cream & Onion Chicken Nuggets image

I saw this recipe on an episode of Paula Deen's show and tweaked it to make it a bit easier. These nuggets can be made for dinner or even served as appetizers for a party. I've found that regular sc&o chips work better than rippled ones, but you can use either. Also if you bread the chicken in a large ziploc bag clean up is SO much faster. You could also use a cooking spray instead of the butter. Enjoy!!

ONION NUGGETS



Onion Nuggets image

I used to make these when my kids were home and I had onions from the garden. If you like onion rings, you will like these. They are easier and would also freeze well. Just reheat and crisp in the oven. We always dipped in ketchup or some ranch dressing. My kids would eat the leftovers as a snack and I guess they could be an...

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 9

3/4 c flour
2 tsp baking powder
1 Tbsp sugar
1/2 tsp seasoned salt
1 Tbsp cornmeal
1/2 c powdered milk
2 1/2 c finely chopped onion
cold water
oil for frying

Steps:

  • 1. Prep all the ingredients and put about a 1/2 inch oil in a deep, heavy skillet. Begin to heat oil. I did mark panfry as the cooking method because I always flattened them out a little on the bottom of the skillet. Was not quite sure.
  • 2. Mix together first six ingredients.
  • 3. Stir in enough cold water to make a VERY thick batter.
  • 4. Add onions. Mix completely.
  • 5. Check to see if oil is hot by dropping a tiny bit of batter into it. If it sizzles and fries, it is hot. (Sorry. This is just what my grandma did. It is what my mom did. It is just what I do.)
  • 6. Drop dough by skant teaspoons into hot oil. Flatten slightly. Flip over after brown on one side. Brown on the other side.
  • 7. Remove from oil and drain on toweling. Put in a warm oven until all nuggets are done.
  • 8. Serve. To freeze, cool completely and freeze on a cookie sheet. When frozen, transfer to a freezer bag or container. I would reheat in a 375 oven until crisp and hot.
  • 9. Note: If you make these larger they will be more like onion fritters. Puffier and softer. It just depends on what you want or need for the meal.
