Juicy chicken with a delicious crispy crust is loved not only by many children, but also by adults. If you also want to eat nuggets from time to time, it is not at all necessary to visit fast food restaurants, standing in queues at the checkout. After all, treats can be easily prepared at home. In appearance, such a chicken turns out to be no worse than the purchased one, and even more so in taste.
It is necessary
- - Chicken fillet - 1 kg;
- - Lemon - 0.5 pcs.;
- - Soda - 0.5 tsp;
- - Starch - 1 tsp;
- - Flour for breading - a few tablespoons;
- - Salt;
- - Ground black pepper;
- - Sunflower oil for frying;
- - Frying pan.
Instructions
Step 1
Rinse the chicken fillet under cold running water and pat dry with paper towels. Squeeze one tablespoon of juice from half a lemon by hand or in any other convenient way.
Step 2
Cut the fillet into pieces of any shape, but so that they are not too small. Place the pieces in a bowl, add a couple of pinches of ground black pepper, baking soda and salt to taste. Mix everything thoroughly so that each piece is completely covered with this mixture.
Step 3
Put the starch in a bowl and pour in a tablespoon of lemon juice. Mix everything again and, covered with a lid or cling film, leave the chicken to marinate for 20-30 minutes.
Step 4
After the time has passed, take a pan and pour the sunflower oil into it. Heat it well over medium heat. After that, pour flour into a plate and roll each piece of chicken fillet in it on all sides. Place the pieces in the skillet so they don't touch each other. Fry the products until golden brown.
Step 5
Put the finished nuggets on a dish. They can be served right there with your favorite sauce, ketchup, French fries and fresh salad.
