Ingredients Needed
Chicken Breast: Chick fil a nuggets are made with boneless, skinless chicken breast. You can dice up the raw chicken into nugget size pieces! Pickle Juice: Pickle juice has the perfect amount of salt and acidity for a marinade that will season the chicken and tenderize it to perfection. Milk & Egg: After marinating the chicken with some pickle juice, you will coat the chicken in milk in egg so that there is a layer that will help the flour stick to the chicken. Flour & Cornstarch: A combination of flour and cornstarch will coat the outside of the chicken and make these extra crispy! Powdered Sugar: Powdered sugar will caramelize a bit when it is fried, creating a crunchy outer layer that has a lovely balance of flavors. Spices: Paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt and pepper will season up these nuggets to perfection! Peanut Oil: To fry! If you are allergic to peanuts, use another neutral oil like canola or vegetable oil. For the Chick Fil A Sauce: A simple combination of dijon mustard, honey, mayonnaise and barbecue sauce will make a sauce that tastes just like the classic chick fil a sauce!
