Chicken nuggets with cheese in a frying pan

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 45 mins

1. STEP 1

   

   How to fry chicken nuggets with cheese in a frying pan? This dish is not difficult to make. First, prepare the necessary ingredients. For nuggets, you can take chicken fillet from the breast or thigh of the bird. In both cases, to save time, use boneless meat.

2. STEP 2

   

   Wash the chicken fillet, dry it and cut it across the grain into slices about 3 cm thick. If your fillet is small, like mine, then just cut it in half. Lightly beat each slice with a hammer on one side, being careful not to damage the integrity of the meat. We just need to flatten the pieces so that we can wrap the cheese slices in them.

3. STEP 3

   

   Cut the cheese according to the number of meat pieces into not very long cubes so that they do not stick out beyond the edges of the chicken slices. You can use any cheese you like. Mozzarella, Gouda or regular Russian will do. The main thing is that it melts and tastes good.

4. STEP 4

   

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

5. STEP 5

   

   Sift the flour into a separate bowl through a sieve.

6. STEP 6

   

   Lightly beat the eggs with a fork.

7. STEP 7

   

   Place a block of cheese on each slice of chicken.

8. STEP 8

   

   And form nuggets by wrapping the cheese in the meat. In this case, you must try to prevent the cheese from flowing out through possible holes. The chicken should tightly envelop the cheese.

9. STEP 9

   

   First dip the pieces of chicken fillet into beaten eggs (you can skip this step and immediately roll the chicken in flour).

10. STEP 10

    

    Then roll in flour on all sides.

11. STEP 11

    

    Then dip the chicken pieces into the beaten eggs again and thoroughly bread them on all sides in breadcrumbs.

12. STEP 12

    

    Heat vegetable oil in a frying pan. Place the prepared chicken pieces and fry on both sides until golden brown. There should be enough oil in the pan to reach the middle of the nuggets. If desired, you can deep fry the nuggets in a small saucepan.

13. STEP 13

    

    Transfer the finished nuggets to napkins to remove excess fat, then serve with ketchup, sweet and sour or cheese sauce. Bon appetit!

Chicken nuggets with a cheese heart could not help but attract me, I am a fanatical meat eater and will definitely cook them when I make my next visit to my kitchen.

Looking at the step-by-step photographs, it’s hard to resist such a dish. Cheese filling is always delicious, but I especially liked the idea of ​​​​filling with butter and adding herbs.
