Delicious and Crispy Chicken Nuggets in the Oven: You Don't Even Need Oil
Nuggets are usually prepared by deep frying, but there is a less hassle-free way - cooking in the oven.
To make the chicken tender and soft under the crispy crust, it will need to be marinated.
To do this, you will need to cut 3 chicken fillets into random pieces, put them in a suitable container and pour 2 tablespoons of olive oil into it, then add 1 teaspoon of sweet paprika and salt and pepper to taste.
It is better if the chicken marinates under film in the refrigerator overnight, but half an hour at room temperature is enough.
Now you can start frying. To do this, prepare three plates. In one of them, pour breadcrumbs with a pinch of turmeric, so that the nuggets turn out a beautiful golden color.
In the second, add flour with a pinch of salt and pepper, and in the third, beat 2 large eggs until smooth.
Each piece must first be rolled in flour, then dipped in egg and finally dipped in breadcrumbs.
Now transfer the nuggets from the oven to the grill and bake for 30 minutes at 180 degrees. Mode - "top + bottom + convection".
