① Prep the Chicken Mixture:

• Grind your chicken breast until smooth. Mix in salt, white pepper, onion powder, garlic powder, and the egg.

② Shape the Nuggets:

• Form your nuggets! For authenticity, go for classic McDonald’s shapes like the boot, bell, and ball. Freeze for 30 minutes to hold their shape.

③ Make the Coating:

• In a bowl, mix flour, cornstarch, baking powder, paprika, salt, and white pepper.

④ Make the Batter:

• In another bowl, whisk together cold water, flour, cornstarch, egg, baking powder, and salt.

⑤ Coat & Batter:

• Dip each nugget into the dry coating first, then into the batter. Repeat if you want that extra crispy crunch!

⑥ Fry the Nuggets:

• Heat avocado oil to 350°F. Fry your nuggets until golden brown—about 4-5 minutes. Pro tip: Fry in batches so your oil stays HOT.

⑦ Drain & Serve:

• Remove nuggets and drain on paper towels. Serve with your favorite dipping sauces like BBQ or honey mustard.

💥 Pro Tips for Extra Crispy Nuggets:

• Double Dip: For that legendary crunch, dip the nuggets in the coating and batter twice.

• Fry Twice: First fry at 325°F for 2 minutes, then a quick second fry at 375°F for 2-3 minutes for max crispiness.

• No Soggy Nuggets: Keep oil hot by frying in small batches!
