How to Make Chicken Nuggets at Home the Easy Way! Plus Special Dipping Sauce

[@heikehasanzada5486]

I made these for my 3 year old this evening along with homemade oven baked fries-and I had a happy girl! They were yummy! Made extra for the freezer so when I need something in a pinch I have something easy and healthier than fast food to warm up for my babygirl. Thanks for the recipe, queeeen.

[@racheleisele]

I'm pregnant and the cravings for fast food, specifically crispy crunchy chicken, is UNREAL!!! Thank you for this recipe, I can't wait to make these at home when the next craving hits!!!

[@Brandon_501]

She also has an older recipe for chicken fingers that i have made and i think those would hit the spot for you! Hopefully pregnancy is not too rough, take care!!

[@LauraintheKitchen]

You will love them!!!!!! And congratulations!! What a blessing!!

[@PastleLif3]

Healthy delivery!

[@theirishcailin333]

I wish I craved things like these on my last 2 pregnancies but I craved dirty mop water and laundry detergent! Honestly I wanted to suck the water out of a dirty mop, it was disgusting and obviously I never indulged 😅

[@andersenjudith7114]

These were delicious and so was the dipping sauce! I think I used more oil than I should have. I will use much less in the future! Thank you for sharing, they were amazing!!

[@natymarcs]

🍽👩‍🍳Superb , nice & best recipe 👌🏻 looks so delicious , liked it 👍

[@riaallick5092]

I love the way you used real chicken and didn't blend and try to remake it❤❤❤. This is how chicken nuggets is supposed to be. The sauce I make a different version that I use in my wraps. Mayo, Ketchup and Parsley Flakes butttttttt that BBQ sauce is a must try. Love you Laura all the way from 🇹🇹

[@AKLove-sl1yy]

What do you mean by blend? I've never heard of that term but then again I don't usually look for a chicken nuggets recipe as I have my own that my family loves. Google just shoved this video in my news feed I because I ran out of buttermilk the other day which I use in my nugget recipe for a more tender chicken, and lighter crunch.

[@riaallick5092]

@@AKLove-sl1yy the blend the chicken, with flour and spices and then mold it small rectangle or square. Some put egg and breadcrumbs also.

[@AKLove-sl1yy]

@@riaallick5092 thanks for the explanation I was thinking that maybe you were meaning some people used ground chicken and blend it in the flour and seasonings which I would think would not be really easy having to shape each nugget. I think cutting a real piece of chicken into chunks is probably a little faster especially if you use a good pair of kitchen scissors that can come apart to get washed easily.

[@LauraintheKitchen]

I’m really not a fan of that method, I’d rather just make chicken meatballs if I had to do that lio

[@donna8212]

Ohhhhh those look scrumptious ☺️👍🏻👏🏻

[@shelbyr4805]

how could we make these in an air fryer?

[@mwinchesterjr6862]

easy and great recipe. thank you. Probably omitted to make prep simpler. But since we're using chicken breast, do you think brining the chicken for 20-30 minutes would elevate the flavor? Maybe with say a dill pickle brine?

[@christeenprice5637]

Awesome video thanks

[@GamingFunwithNoreen]

Wow❤

[@cathycarlisi1673]

Yum! Can these be done in the air fryer?

[@meld.a.181]

Yes i would like to know that also. Please answer 😊

[@LauraintheKitchen]

I wouldn’t because the flour needs fat to brown and crisp. It’s not the same process as a breadcrumb coating

[@hotdjdwray]

Left out 2 very important parts of the recipe! Appr. temp of oil and appr. length of time to cook would Greatly help.

[@MLLL1234]

Delicious!!!

[@JoanneNg-d5h]

Hi Laura, your recipes look absolutely delicious! Unfortunately, my little grandchild has egg allergy. What can I use to substitute the egg and mayo?

[@nataliewolfers1381]

How long can i keep this in freezer for?

[@ladylovelorion]

can you overnight this?

[@SuperHaijin]

Can you make a version of these baked?

[@Tropicalpisces]

I cant WAIT to make these. You think using thighs is ok?

[@devwadhwa9893]

I cannot have dairy, so can I substitute the milk for almond milk for the breading.

[@devwadhwa9893]

Can I even use an air fryer for this?

[@junebug8882]

Hello beautiful Laura 🌹😘I wanna taste something good and yummy tonight.. 2023.. Yum

[@antoniamadimure]

Pse can I have recipe for the nugget sauce. I did not get it.

[@Jules-f7s]

@laura in the kitchen ,would it be smoked paprika,or plain paprika ?

[@andreacannon9228]

At what point would you freeze these? After flouring?

[@LPdedicated]

My sister and brother-in-law love making chicken (or veggie) nuggets with the kids. The breading stage is a mess 'cause they're still really young, but they love cooking with us and seeing what goes into their food! That's how my sister and I were raised (my dad was a chef) so we try to pass it on! But yeah, sometimes we get take out. No shame in that! 😊❤ Edit: I will definitely try introduce them to that sauce though! Looks divine!!

[@LauraintheKitchen]

Sometimes the mess is part of the process! Will allow them to feel like they can have fun in the kitchen

[@-RONNIE]

Nice video 👍🏻

[@MegaMissions]

Laura, can these be oven-baked? I will try these soon since I love chicken nuggets!

[@LauraintheKitchen]

I wouldn’t, they don’t have a breadcrumb coating so baking them could result in a soggy mess

[@MegaMissions]

Got ya. Okay, thanks for the heads up!@@LauraintheKitchen

[@ramencurry6672]

Looks great. The recipe is similar to the chicken karaage recipe

[@Jendromeda]

great!!!!

[@farlyn1605]

Why are the raw chicken breast different in color?

[@alexscottslough1179]

When you cut the chicken it seems so firm and easy to cut 'straight'. When i buy chicken breasts they are always much more floppy. Why is that?

[@stephan1emar1e]

Thanks so much for this recipe! I noticed in both the video and on the recipe online you listed the ingredient as “milk”. Is it buttermilk, whole milk, 2%, skim? Does it not matter?

[@frankzito8653]

Milk means whole milk unless otherwise stated. Frankly, buttermilk would be great here as well. It helps tenderize the chicken.

[@klamentyne5991]

milk is whole milk, unless otherwise specified

[@LauraintheKitchen]

Regular whole milk unless specified

[@stephan1emar1e]

@@LauraintheKitchen thanks 🥹

[@aleksandrasidel5412]

Can they be frozen and then reheated in microwave?

[@LauraintheKitchen]

I’ve never done it but I do refrigerate them then pop them in the toaster oven (or air fryer would work)for about 7-8 min to reheat them

[@GeorgeAlexa]

I will make the dipping sauce as it must be good, as many comments. However, I will look for an air fryer recipe instead of dipping nuggets in oil. What do you think?

[@Chris-er5uj]

What sides are y’all going to make with this?

[@LauraintheKitchen]

I pop curly fries in the oven (frozen because im not ashamed! Lol) and a veg if you must but sometimes unnecessary

[@ramencurry6672]

Carrot sticks with ranch dressing dip will probably be decent

[@blueblazer201]

Why do people come to cooking shows and give a 'thumbs down". Are they trolls?

[@dcstealth11111]

how about this in airfryer what temperature would I do it

[@LauraintheKitchen]

I wouldn’t do this in an air fryer. Theirs no breadcrumb coating so could result in a chewy end result with not much crispies

Thoughts on substituting the milk for heavy cream?

Unnecessary, too thick and rich

[@beegood14]

How long should the chicken nuggets cook in the pan? When do you turn them over?

[@ramencurry6672]

Around 160 degrees using a digital thermometer. Make sure it’s also golden brown too

[@PastleLif3]

If you marinate your chicken in pickle juice you will get chick fil A nuggets :)

[@tony2707]

Batter was weak and translucent, dont know what i dod wrong but followed very closely.

[@TimothyTate-tc5yk]

The way that I do my chicken nuggets is I grind my chicken breast using the fine grinding plate. The I take the ground chicken breast and dust it with cornstarch and then I seasoned it with poultry seasoning then I divided and roll it into balls and then flatten the balls out and then dip it in the egg batter and the and dredge them in the plinko bread crumbs and then deep fry them until they float until the golden brown. They look like the chicken nuggets that you get from McDonald's or buy out of the grocery store they're much more better because they're homemade and you don't have to worry about any of the preservatives.

not to be that person, but extra light olive oil has a lot of chemicals in it! i know it also has different nutrients than other oils, but i would just be mindful ❤️ otherwise, this is totally going onto my to make list!
