Recipe
1 lb boneless chicken thighs
1 egg
1/3 c milk (buttermilk, almond, etc.)
1 1/2 c bread crumbs
1/2 tsp paprika
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp cayenne pepper
1 1/2 tsp additional seasonings (basil, oregano, parsley, etc.)
salt & pepper
Cut the chicken into small pieces. Whisk together the egg and milk, and let the chicken sit while you mix the dry ingredients. Shake some of the moisture off of the chicken and roll in the breading.
You have your choice of cooking options: deep fry, shallow fry (a few minutes each side), bake (10 mins at 425?).
The recipe suggests a mix of honey, mustard, and mayonnaise for a sauce.
Notes
I went with a shallow fry, which was a bit tricky in the apartment from an air ventilation standpoint. The nuggets were barely cooked through before the smoke became an issue. Very tasty coating, and a lot of it on the small chicken bits. Here's the much-needed hearty meal with mashed potatoes and baked kale:
