    Chicken Nuggets Recipe!
    Macros per Chicken Nugget (Makes 64):
    45 Cals, 3g Carbs, 0.5g Fat, 7g Protein!
    Ingredients:
    64oz Chicken Breast
    100g All Purpose Flour
    21 Seasoning Salute
    120g Panko Bread Crumbs
    2 Large Eggs
    Directions:
    1.) Slice your chicken breasts into about 1oz nuggets. Now add your flour and 21 seasoning salute to a bowl and mix. Then add your panko to another bowl. Lastly, add your eggs to another bowl and whisk.
    2.) So now it’s time to dredge the nuggets. You will have one hand designated as the dry ingredients hand and the other as the wet ingredients hand. Try your best to keep with this because it’ll make this process soo much easier.
    3.) I used my left hand as dry and right as wet. So line your dishes in the order of all-purpose flour, eggs and panko bread crumbs. Now take a chicken nugget, dip it into the flour covering all sides. Then dip it into the egg covering it like you did in the flour. Then dip in the panko doing the same process. Add to a pan to hold till you add to your air fryer. Repeat this process for all 64 nuggets.
    4.) I had to do this in 5 batches because my air fryer could hold 12 nuggets each time. So spray you air fryer tray with non-stick cooking spray and add your nuggets. Spray the tops of the nuggets with your cooking spray and then cook at 360 degrees F for 9 minutes total. At the 5 minutes mark, you will flip the nuggets so they cook evenly. And that’s it! Repeat and enjoy!
    Crinkle Cut French Fries Recipe!
    Macros for ¼ of the Fries:
    205 Cals, 45g Carbs, 1g Fat, 5g Protein!
    Ingredients:
    3 Medium Sized Russet Potatoes (about 1000g in total)
    Non Stick Cooking Spray
    Sea Salt
    Directions:
    1.) Take one of your potatoes and slice in half long ways. Then face one of the sides of the slices potato face down on the flat side. Now slice straight down across the potato. Now flip the thicker slices and slice again to get even sized crinkle cut fries. Repeat this process with all your potatoes.
    2.) Now spray your air fryer with non stick cooking spray and add ⅓ of your fries to it. Spray with non stick cooking spray and add sea salt. Add to air fryer for 12 minutes on 400 degrees F. After 7 minutes, take out and toss the fries so they will cook evenly. Add back into the air fryer for the remaining time. Then enjoy!

    When I was a kid I used to only ever be able to get Dino Nuggets at the snack bar at my local pool. Only when I grew older did I realize you can find those bad boys in the frozen section at most grocery stores. I don't know if it's a cop out answer to say the place I go for nuggets is the grocery store, but we all know the dino shapes just hit different.

    Putting the chicken in a food processor first for a good mince makes for more of a fast food style nugget.

    • @fckSashka
      @fckSashka Před 4 lety +15

      Alternatively, you can just mince the chicken roughly with a knife (since cleaning out a food processor it’s kind of a hassle IMO).
      Edit: After mincing, you should put the pieces into a freezer for easier breading. :)

    My fave place for both the ultimate crinkle fries and nuggets is my gran's place. The kitchen had this tiny window that would open up to the living room. She used to buy the little serving trays and we could 'order' the fries through her little window. Still have the best memories to those days! And no fries ever beat hers 🍟

    Favorite Nuggs are from Birchbark Eatery in Glensfalls, NY. They are technically made out of seitan, but they have the best vegan chicken nugget recipe I've ever tried. They have the perfect amount of spice and seasoning and are the most realistic vegan chicken nugget that I've ever tried. Blows all others out of the water and a must try!

    Air fryer is just a fancy term for small convection oven. By the time you’ve prepped everything your normal convection oven will have heated up and you won’t have to mess around doing batches in your air fryer, so it’s actually way quicker!

    For breaded nuggets I have to go with either Wendy's or Burger King's spicy nuggets. They are close enough in taste either will work for me. Bonus for not needing any dipping sauce so I can eat while I drive :). My go to fast food nugget though is Chick Fil A's grilled nuggets. Better flavor to me but a little messy if you try and drive & eat. For french fries my all time favorite is a local place called Hamburger Station. They cut the fries fresh every day. More like carnival fries. Inside they also have bottles of malted vinegar.

    My favorite spot is chick fil a too! The sauce is just too fricking good. Although, in my college days, Burger King would be the move because of the price!

    Best crinkle fries are definitely from Mighty Fine, which is good ole’ Austin, Texas🤤best nuggets would definitely be from Chick-Fil-A!!
