Ingredients
- ground chicken - 1 pound
- bread slices - a few pieces (crusts removed, ground)
- garlic powder - 1 tablespoon
- cumin - 1-2 teaspoons
- mustard powder - 1-2 teaspoons
- salt - 1 teaspoon
- black pepper - to taste (freshly ground)
- egg - 1 (scrambled)
- panko breadcrumbs - as needed
- oil - small amount (high temperature, for frying)
Instructions
- Prepare Chicken Mixture: In a large bowl, combine ground chicken, ground bread, garlic powder, cumin, mustard powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well.
- Shape Nuggets: Oil your hands and shape the mixture into nuggets. You can flatten the mixture and cut it into shapes if preferred.
- Coat Nuggets: Dip each nugget into scrambled egg, then coat with panko breadcrumbs.
- Fry Nuggets: Heat a small amount of high temperature oil in a pan over medium heat. Use tongs to add the nuggets to the oil. Fry until golden brown, about 2 minutes per side, ensuring the internal temperature reaches at least 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Serve: Remove the nuggets from the oil and let them cool on a wire rack. Serve warm.
