McNuggets

[big dog cowboy]

PM me, I am a chik-fil-A nut. Sure wish we had those here in NoCal >(

They just opened up one near me and you would think they are giving away food there the way the drive thru line wraps around the building and down the street.

Ha, same here and I don't get it, their sandwiches are just bland to me. Waffle fries are pretty good though.

Odd that this thread popped up tonight. I am not a fan of McDonalds chicken products at all. However I love some Chik-Fil-A food. I especially love their nuggets. I had just come across a recipe to make Chik-Fil-A nuggets at home. We made them tonight and I can't believe how much they tasted like the real ones.

Believe it or not, the secret ingredient is powdered sugar. If anyone wants the recipe I will PM it to those who are adventurous in the kitchen.

I can't find the website but it had all kinds of fast food recipes, from wendys chili to big mac sauce.

Have you tried the spicy chicken sandwich? It has a little bit of a kick.

I don't like the pickles on the sandwiches. But the chicken itself is so delicious.

Also: Chick Fil-a Sauce. Ask for it, you won't regret it.

I get it with extra pickles :

They actually soak their chicken in a pickle juice brine to make it more juicy and give it extra flavor.

Since we are talking fast food chicken, I thought I would throw Zaxby's name out there. They are the best IMO.

Just like anything in life, you can't over do it.

There's at least one thing I have no problem over doing.

If it were my wife, we'd still be married. But you're on the right track.

Why the secrecy? Just post the link. Anyway, I figure one of these has to be it.

No problem, I had it on my Ipad and last night I was on my laptop.



2 skinless and boneless chicken breasts
1 cup milk
1 egg
1 1/4 cups flour
2 TBSP powdered sugar
2 tsp salt
1 tsp pepper
peanut oil (is best) or canola oil

In a medium bowl whisk the egg and stir in the milk. Trim any fat away from chicken. Cube chicken into bite size pieces. Place chicken in milk mixture,and cover. Let it 'marinate' for 2-4 hours in the fridge. This will make the chicken very nice and tender. In a gallon size resealable baggie combine flour, powdered sugar, salt and pepper. Seal and shake to combine. Place about 2 inches of oil in a medium deep pot. Over medium high heat (more towards the high side) heat oil until hot. If using a thermometer let the temperature reach 375°. If you don't have a fancy gadget like most people, I always test my oil by dropping a few drops of water into it. You want it to sizzle and not pop too much. Adjust your heat if necessary. Using a fork or tongs remove cut chicken from milk mixture and place in the flour mixture. Seal and shake until nuggets are completely coated. Place about a 6-8 nuggets into hot oil and let them cook until golden brown, turning half way through once the edge of your chicken starts to turn white. About 1 minute each side. Always double check to see if any chicken you make is cooked through. I always just make a tiny cut to see if it's pink. Remove and drain on a paper towel. Repeat until all nuggets are cooked. Serve with your favorite sauce! I will let you in on a secret that only my bestest friends know...I ALWAYS eat my nuggets with honey! Always.

If there are more than three of you use at least three breasts. Let me know what you think.

Wasnt there a story recently about a girl in England who ate nothing but McNuggets for 18 years and it almost killed her? Something about McDonalds using a compound used in cosmetics to bind the McNuggets together?

This thread is now about how good Zaxby's is. Zaxby's grilled chicken sandwich is pretty much cocaine to me. I almost have to get one when I pass by there.
