Chicken nuggets!

[dirtsailor2003]

If you like chicken nuggets, this recipe is a keeper.
I did tweak one step. For the liquid batter I added a shot of vodka. The alcohol lightens the batter a bit and is something I do I when ever I use a liquid batter.
Annalee has requested that we try and adapt this to oven baking. So I’ll be working on a dry only option.
We did make a double batch and I’m glad we did. The single batch would’ve made pretty small nuggets.
Next go I may try breasts instead of thighs.
We made baked fries in the oven and my Sous chef made the sauce which is very similar to the apricot glaze I posted the other day that I use.

The Happiest Meal of All: Homemade Chicken Nuggets

McDonald's chicken nuggets are famous for their uniform and tender meat, savory flavor, and crisp coating. Here's how to make a replica version at home.

Thank you!
Yeah haven’t deep fried indoors for decades. Was going to pull out the discada and use it but the wind was screaming so I opted for the Coleman and the garage.

Nice. I like the use of the Coleman stove. The red leg/red tank model was only made for a few years in the 60's and your's looks to be in good shape.

Yep this is a 1962. Guy used it once, put it in his closet and never used it again! I picked it up on Craigslist for $20. I replaced the generator because one of the o-rings is leaking. I just got a new o-rings so I'll have the original as a spare. We use the stove all the time even at home.
