Easy Chicken Nuggets

Chicken nuggets are small pieces of deboned chicken, breaded or battered and fried or baked, and made at home they are a considerably better proposition than the frozen version. The argument for making them is straightforward and it is about knowing what is in them. Commercial nuggets are made from mechanically processed chicken of variable composition; a home-made nugget is a piece of chicken breast or thigh you cut yourself. The difference in texture is immediately obvious, and so is the difference in seasoning, which is entirely under your control. They are a fixture of children's eating in many households, which is much of why the home-made version is worth the small effort. The method has two forks: deep-fried gives the crispest result, baked is lighter and less work, and both are legitimate. A brief chill after breading helps the coating stay put either way. **Filed as Worldwide**, chicken nuggets are not an African dish.
