Chicken Nuggets

Ingredients

1 chicken breast cubed (nugget sized)

1t Salt

½ t Red Pepper

¼ t Dry Mustard

1t Garlic Powder

1t Onion Powder

1t Baking Powder

1 Egg

1 C AP Flour

½ C Corn Meal

Directions

In a deep pot, heat oil on high. When your oil reaches 350 degrees, lower the heat to medium. Clean chicken and cut into nugget size pieces. Season chicken with salt, red pepper, dry mustard, garlic powder, onion powder, and baking powder in a bowl. Add an egg and mix well. In a plastic bag, combine flour and corn meal. Add chicken pieces and coat well. To hot oil, add chicken in small batches, cooking chicken about five minutes per side. When all chicken is cooked let drain on a bed of paper towels.

While our chicken nuggets are draining their excess oil, let’s whip up some dipping sauce. For this recipe, I prepared a delicious honey mustard dressing.
