How to cook Chicken nuggets at home

Step 1

For homemade nuggets, wash and dry the chicken fillet. Cut each into 3 pieces crosswise, slightly diagonally. Then cut into halves, also diagonally.

Step 2

In a bowl, mix drinking water, Worcestershire sauce and 1 tbsp. l. salt. Place the chicken pieces in the resulting brine. Cover the bowl or cover with cling film. Put in the refrigerator for 30 minutes, no more. Put the panko crackers in a bag and crush with a rolling pin. Pour them onto a plate, add dried garlic, ground black pepper and soda.

Step 3

In a flat bowl, lightly beat the whites with a whisk. Dip half of the nugget chicken fillets in them, then coat in the breadcrumb mixture, pressing lightly with your palms. Transfer to a plate. Bread the second half of the chicken fillet. Leave on for 8-10 minutes.

Step 4

In a frying pan or deep saute pan, pour vegetable oil into a layer about 2 cm thick. Heat the oil to 180°C. Dredge half of the fillets in the breadcrumbs again, shake off excess and fry in oil until golden brown, turning once halfway through cooking.

Step 5

For the sauce for the nuggets, heat the jam over low heat, slightly diluting it with drinking water (1-2 tablespoons) and adding all the spices and spices according to the recipe. As soon as the jam becomes liquid, pour in the vinegar and soy sauce. Stir and remove from heat immediately. Let cool.
