Step 1

In a large bowl, combine the milk and pickle juice.

Step 2

To the milk mixture, add the cut up chicken pieces and make sure they are submerged.

Step 3

Cover the bowl and place in the fridge to marinate for 1-3 hours.

Step 4

Use a food processor to finely crush the crackers. (alternatively, you can place the crackers in a large zip top bag and crush them with a rolling pin)

Step 5

Pour the cracker crumbs into a large bowl and add the breadcrumbs, flour, paprika, pepper, salt and powdered sugar. Whisk together and pour into a large zip top bag.

Step 6

After the chicken has marinated, pour approximately 2" of oil into the bottom of a deep frying pan, dutch oven, or deep fryer. You want enough oil to cover the nuggets.

Step 7

Heat the oil to 350-360° F.

Step 8

While the oil is heating, use tongs to move the marinated chicken to the bag of seasoned bread crumbs, shaking until evenly coated.

Step 9

Once the oil is at temperature, drop in the nuggets in batches, and let them fry until golden brown, approximately 2-3 minutes. Do not overcrowd the pan. Chicken should reach an internal temperature of 165° with a meat thermometer.

Step 10

Move the cooked nuggets to a paper towel lined plate to drain and repeat until all batches are cooked.

Step 11

In a medium bowl combine all the sauce ingredients and whisk until smooth.

Step 12

Serve!
