Serving Size: 8

Cooking Time: 30 minutes

Ingredients

• 1 Inch vegetable oil, for frying
• 2 Cups all-purpose flour
• 3 Tablespoons (tbsp) garlic salt, seasoned
• 1 Tablespoon (tbsp) black pepper, ground
• 4 Large eggs, whisked
• 8 Skinless, boneless chicken breast halves, cut into small chunks

Steps

1. Gather all ingredients. Heat 1 inch of vegetable oil in a large skillet or saucepan to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
2. In a bowl, combine the flour, garlic salt, and black pepper. Mix well to ensure even seasoning.
3. Dip each chicken piece into the whisked eggs, ensuring they are fully coated.
4. Press each egg-coated chicken piece into the flour mixture, making sure to coat well. Shake off any excess flour and place the coated chicken pieces onto a plate.
5. Working in batches, carefully fry the chicken pieces in the hot oil until they are golden brown and no longer pink in the center, about 5-7 minutes per batch.
6. Use an instant-read thermometer to check that the internal temperature of the chicken reaches at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
7. Remove the nuggets from the oil and drain on a paper towel-lined plate.
8. Serve hot with your favorite dipping sauce and enjoy the crispy, flavorful nuggets.
