How to make McDonald’s chicken nuggets

Answer 1

To make McDonald's style chicken nuggets at home, here's a recipe you can follow:

Ingredients:
- 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup breadcrumbs
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon paprika
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1/4 teaspoon dried basil
- 1/4 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 egg
- 1/4 cup milk
- Vegetable oil for frying

Instructions:
1. Start by preparing the breading mixture. In a shallow dish, combine the flour, breadcrumbs, salt, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, black pepper, thyme, basil, and oregano. Mix well and set aside.
2. Cut the chicken breasts into small bite-sized pieces, similar to the shape of nuggets.
3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg and milk to create an egg wash.
4. Preheat vegetable oil in a frying pan or deep fryer to 350°F (175°C).
5. Dip each piece of chicken into the egg wash and then coat it in the breading mixture, making sure all sides are evenly covered. Shake off any excess.
6. Carefully place the breaded chicken nuggets into the preheated oil, being careful not to overcrowd the pan. Fry them for about 6-8 minutes or until golden brown and cooked through, flipping them halfway through cooking.
7. Once cooked, remove the nuggets from the oil and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil.
8. Serve the homemade McDonald's-style chicken nuggets hot with your favorite dipping sauces.
