Chicken Nuggets Ingredients
- 3 raw chicken breasts, patted dry with a paper towel (you can use canned chicken too)
- 2 eggs
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 tablespoon Old Bay Seasoning
- 2 teaspoons Lawry’s Seasoning Salt
- oil for frying

Directions
- Add the chicken, eggs, cheese, and seasonings to a blender or food processor. Blend until the chicken is paste-like, not completely smooth, but not chunky either.
- In a large cast-iron skillet, heat oil over medium heat.
- Take about 2 tablespoons of the chicken batter and form into a nugget shape. I like to use a cookie scoop to keep the nuggets a uniform size, then gently smash them with a spoon to make them a nugget shape.
- Fry the nuggets in the oil for about 4-6 minutes per side, gently flipping them as needed. Use a digital read thermometer to make sure the nuggets are 165 °F.
- Serve with your favorite dip, such as ranch, ketchup, Chick-fil-A sauce, honey mustard, BBQ, etc.
- Keep leftovers refrigerated. We reheat ours in our air-fryer.
