Ingredients:

1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch cubes

1/2 cup all-purpose flour

1 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon black pepper

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon paprika

1/2 cup breadcrumbs

1 egg, beaten

Vegetable oil for frying

Instructions:

In a large bowl, combine the chicken, flour, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika.

In a separate bowl, whisk together the breadcrumbs and egg.

Dip the chicken pieces in the egg mixture, then coat them in the breadcrumbs.

Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat.

Fry the chicken nuggets in batches for 3-4 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through.

Drain the chicken nuggets on paper towels and serve immediately with your favorite dipping sauce.

Tips:

For extra crispy nuggets, you can double-coat them in the breadcrumbs.

If you don't have breadcrumbs, you can use crushed crackers or cereal.

You can also add other spices to the breadcrumbs, such as onion powder, or celery salt.

To make the chicken nuggets healthier, you can bake them instead of frying them. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F and bake the nuggets for 15-20 minutes, or until cooked through.

Buffalo chicken nuggets: Dip the chicken nuggets in buffalo sauce before coating them in the breadcrumbs.
