Chicken Nuggets

 
 
 
My son requested that I post this recipe.
 
 
Ingredients:
chicken breasts or thighs, skinless and boneless, cut into smaller pieces
2-3 eggs (depending on how much meat you have)
bread crumbs (I find that rice bread crumbs are crispier)
salt
oil for frying
 
Beat the eggs n a big bowl, add pieces of meat, mix with the spoon or fork so all pieces are saturated with eggs, and set aside.
 
Pour bread crumbs onto dinner plate. Put oil in the frying pan and turn the heat on. When oil is hot, turn the heat to middle. Take meat pieces one by one out of eggs and roll each in the bread crumbs. Transfer to frying pan. Don't do this step in advance because you will not get crispy coating or it even might fall off. Fry until you see from the side that meat is done to the half. Then turn over and fry the other side. You can turn it over again but don't do this more than few times or you'll end up without coating.
 
Get another dinner plate and cover it with few paper towels. When meat is done, transfer it to plate lined with paper towels. Paper will absorb excess oil. After few minutes, transfer nuggets to the serving plate.
