Steps:
- 1. Cut chicken breasts into nugget-sized chunks. Place in a Zip-lock or similar plastic bag. Add spices, salt and pepper. Pour in buttermilk and make sure that bag is completely closed. Squeeze/knead bag to coat and evenly distribute spices. Place in refrigerator for at least one hour or overnight.
- 2. About 45 minutes before you're ready to cook, remove bag from refrigerator and pour off any excess buttermilk. Add flour and close the bag. Shake to coat thoroughly (you may need more flour, depending on how many nuggets you have). Once the nuggets are thoroughly coated, return to the refrigerator for about 30 minutes.
- 3. Heat oil in deep fryer or large, deep fryer pot to 350 degrees. Once oil is hot, add chicken nuggets one at a time. You may have to do this in batches, do not overcrowd. Cook for about 6 to 7 minutes. Remove from hot oil and place on a plate. Serve hot with your favorite dipping sauce.
