Course: Appetizer, Lunch
Cuisine: American

Equipment

1 Cup A regular glass cup

Ingredients

For the chicken:

  • 1 lb ground chicken breast (500g)
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon white pepper (black pepper will still do)

For the tempura wrapping:

  • 1 egg
  • 3 tablespoons cornstarch
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup seltzer (Carbonated water)
  • 1 teaspoon mustard (not necessary)
  • 2 cups of flour

Instructions

  • Start by preparing the chicken mix. Mix the ingredients together in a shallow bowl.
  • Once the mix is homogeneous, wet your hands and start shaping the nuggets into the shapes you prefer. The wet hands will prevent the mixture from sticking to your hands
  • Bring over a tray and spread parchment paper on it, then place your nuggets and place the tray in the freezer for about an hour.
  • In a shallow bowl, mix all of your tempura ingredients. Have another bowl for the flour as well.
  • Take your nuggets and coat them with the mixture in the following order: flour, batter, flour, then batter again.
  • Place your coated nuggets into the frying pan. The cooking time will vary depending on the size. So, keep them in the pan until they’re golden brown.
  • If you want that Mcdonald’s crunch, then avoid covering your cooked nuggets with anything.
  • Serve!

Tips

We recommend any type of sauce or dipping of your preference (optional)
