Homemade Copycat McDonald's Chicken Nuggets

Step 1

In a food processor or mixer, blend the chicken, 1 egg, and salt until the chicken resembles a paste.

Step 2

Form the chicken into tablespoon-sized nuggets. Dredge the nuggets in cornstarch to fully coat. Set aside.

Step 3

In a mixing bowl, mix the flour, seasonings, egg, and water. Mix well until a smooth batter forms.

Step 4

Place a nugget on a fork to dip into the batter. Let excess batter drip off.

Step 5

In a saucepan or deep skillet, bring oil to 350° and place battered nuggets into fry. Fry for 3 minutes until nuggets are floating and remove to a paper towel to let rest. Return nuggets to oil for 2 more minutes to double fry.

Step 6

Allow nuggets to cool before eating.
