Crispy Chicken Nuggets

Don't all kids (and most adults) love Chicken Nuggets?  These little nuggets have anything that you can get at a restaurant or at the supermarket beat!  They are tender and crispy and juicy.  Mmmmm Mmmmm Mmmmm!

I promise you, your kids/grandkids will love these and so will you.  The first time I made these, my granddaughter, Azalee, was only about 3 and she ate so many I thought she was going to pop. 

Crispy Chicken Nuggets

You will need 3 bowls to make these.

Bowl 1:  2 cups of flour, 1 Tbsp. pepper and 2 Tbsp. salt

Bowl 2:  1 can of cream of chicken soup + 5 Tbsp. milk (beat together)

Bowl 3:  2 cups Panko Japanese Breadcrumbs

Cut 2 thawed skinless chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces. 

Roll into the flour in Bowl 1, then dip into the Cream of chicken mixture in Bowl 2.  Will be wet and sticky.  Finally, roll the pieces in the Panko Breadcrumbs in Bowl 3. 
Drop pieces into hot oil (at least 3" deep in a Dutch oven).  Turn at least once and remove once they are brown and crispy on both sides.  Drain on paper towels. 

The Cream of Chicken mixture leaves the pieces juicy on the inside and the Panko makes them crunchy on the outside.  The perfect mixture.  You can also cut the chicken into strips if you prefer chicken strips.
