  1. STEP 1

    STEP 1

    How to make nuggets like McDonald's? Prepare the necessary ingredients.

  2. STEP 2

    STEP 2

    Wash the chicken fillet, dry it and cut it across the grain into slices about 1 cm thick. Mash each slice a little with your hands, giving them a rounded shape.

  3. STEP 3

    STEP 3

    Pour soy sauce over the chicken slices and leave to marinate for 30-40 minutes. Turn the chicken slices periodically to ensure they marinate well and evenly.

  4. STEP 4

    STEP 4

    Combine breadcrumbs with dried garlic, turmeric and ground pepper and mix.

  5. STEP 5

    Dip the marinated chicken fillet pieces into the beaten eggs first.

  8. STEP 8

    STEP 8

    Then roll in flour on all sides.

  9. STEP 9

    STEP 9

    Then dip the chicken in the beaten eggs again and coat in breadcrumbs.

  10. STEP 10

    STEP 10

    Heat vegetable oil in a frying pan. There should be enough vegetable oil to almost completely cover the chicken pieces. If you have a deep saucepan with a small diameter, you can fry the nuggets in it. Place the prepared chicken pieces and deep-fry until golden brown. If the oil does not completely cover the chicken, like mine, then turn the pieces over to the other side and fry until golden brown.

  11. STEP 11

    STEP 11

    Place the finished nuggets on napkins to remove excess fat.

  12. STEP 12

    STEP 12

    Then remove the napkins and serve the chicken nuggets with cheese or sweet and sour sauce. Bon appetit!

I was interested in the recipe for chicken nuggets like at McDonald's; the meat in a crispy breading seems very appetizing to me. I cut the chicken breast across the grain, but I couldn’t get identical rounded pieces; the meat fell apart into small fragments of different sizes. After finishing cutting, I marinated the meat in soy sauce for 40 minutes. I did not add salt to the marinade, I only added salt to a slightly beaten egg. I dipped the chicken in the egg, then placed it in flour, dipped it in the egg again, and finally coated it in breadcrumbs. Fry until golden brown. I didn’t keep the meat in the pan for a long time so as not to dry it out. The meat came out very tender and juicy. As a contrast - crispy breading. Very tasty! Thank you very much!

yeah! As for breading, I usually make breadcrumbs myself from a loaf of bread and a coffee grinder, but here I made it from ready-made breadcrumbs - much worse! The granules are large, they scratch the palate... Make the breading yourself, gentlemen!

I must admit that I live in the provinces and, of course, we don’t have McDonald’s! But sometimes you want to pamper your kids and yourself, of course, with something special... Therefore, you have to look for recipes that are very reminiscent of the original! I found McDonald's Chicken Nuggets on the website and immediately prepared them. The family's delight knew no bounds! Thank you very much!
