Crispy Cornflake Chicken Nuggets Recipe

Step 1

Cut the chicken into similar size chunks, season and set aside.

Step 2

To make the cornflake mixture place the cornflakes in a blender and briefly whizz up until they have the consistency of very coarse breadcrumbs. Combine with the regular breadcrumbs and place in a bowl.  Put the flour in another bowl.

Step 3

Beat the eggs using a fork, season and set aside.

Step 4

Dip each nugget in the flour, then egg, then cornflake mixtures – in that order.

Step 5

In a large frying pan heat up approx. 3 tablespoons of the oil and fry the nuggets on a medium heat until golden brown for about 2 minutes on each side. Add a little more oil after you’ve turned them over.  Do not overcrowd the pan.

Step 6

Place the chicken nuggets on top of a large plate lined with a paper towel (to absorb excess oil) for 1 minute. Discard the paper towel and serve the nuggets with your favourite dip and a sprinkle of lemon/lime juice (optional).
