Cooking Tips
For extra crispy nuggets, you can double coat them by dipping them in egg and flour mixture twice.
To make them even more flavorful, marinate the chicken pieces in buttermilk for a few hours before coating them.
If you don't have an oven, you can also fry the nuggets in hot oil until golden brown.
Storage and Serving
Leftover nuggets can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
To reheat, place them in a preheated oven at 350°F for about 10 minutes or until heated through.
Serve the chicken nuggets as a main dish with fries and a salad, or as a party snack with various dipping sauces.
