Instructions

Step 1: Marinate the Chicken

  1. In a bowl, combine chicken pieces with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, paprika, soy sauce, and buttermilk.
  2. Mix well, ensuring all pieces are coated evenly.
  3. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes (or overnight for deeper flavor).

Step 2: Prepare the Coating

  1. In a separate bowl, mix the flour, cornstarch, baking powder, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, dried oregano, and salt.
  2. In another bowl, beat the egg.
  3. In a third bowl, combine crushed cornflakes, panko breadcrumbs, and chili flakes.

Step 3: Coat the Chicken

  1. Take the marinated chicken and dredge each piece in the flour mixture, ensuring an even coat.
  2. Dip the floured chicken into the beaten egg.
  3. Finally, roll the chicken pieces in the special coating of crushed cornflakes and panko breadcrumbs, pressing lightly to make sure the coating sticks well.

Step 4: Fry to Perfection

  1. Heat vegetable oil in a deep pan to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Fry the nuggets in small batches to avoid overcrowding the pan.
  3. Cook for about 3-4 minutes per batch, turning occasionally, until golden brown and crispy.
  4. Remove and place on a paper towel to absorb excess oil.

Step 5: Serve and Enjoy

Serve your special chicken nuggets hot with your favorite dipping sauces like honey mustard, garlic mayo, or spicy ketchup. Pair with a side of fresh salad or crispy fries for a complete meal.
