The Gourmet Butcher’s Maple Chicken Nuggets
Food Ingredients:
1 cup of flour 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt (iodized salt tends to dry out the meat) 3 tablespoons red paprika 1 teaspoon ground black pepper stick of butter 1/2 cup of pure Vermont maple syrup (Grade B is best)
Recipe preparation:
1 Put everything into a ziplock bag and shake it up. Shake, shake it up, shake your b-o-o-t-y (disco music, bad dancing around your kitchen) This is your breading. Pour it into a bowl. 2 Next, cut up some boneless chicken breasts into ½ to ¾ inch chunks. These are your nuggets. 3 Place the nuggets into the breading bowl, roll ‘em around to cover thoroughly, then shake off any excess. 4 Lay the breaded nuggets on a baking sheet, and bake in a 400 degree F. oven for approximately 18 minutes (or until the chicken is just cooked) 5 Finally, into a saucepan place the butter and maple syrup. This MUST be real maple syrup – don’t you dare use that other stuff. 6 Put the saucepan over high heat till the butter melts and the maple syrup just begins to boil. Immediately turn down the heat to low and keep warm. 7 When the chicken nuggets are done, remove them from the oven and place into a big mixing bowl. 8 Pour the maple syrup mixture over them and stir everything up with a spoon until every last little nugget is well coated. 9 Let stand about 5 minutes 10 Stir again and serve. 11 Do you love me or what???
