What are Chicken Nuglets? Well, I’m going to show you in this video and pair them with some other Southern goodness. Come on along the ride for something a bit different! https://youtu.be/XgGRwbYxY3Q


Tender Fried Chicken Nuglets


2 -3 lbs Chicken Gizzards

2 eggs

Whatever your preferred frying oil…I use vegetable or Canola oil


Breading

3 teaspoons Cayenne pepper

2 teaspoons Garlic powder

2 teaspoons smoked paprika

1 ½ cup flour

½ cup corn starch

1 teaspoon salt

Pepper to taste


Directions


Clean gizzards, salt, and dry brine overnight.


Cook Gizzards before frying:

Pressure cook for 35 minutes on high and slow release or cook in slow cooker/crock pot until gizzards will easily separate into single pieces.


Combine breading and prepare egg wash. Heat oil to 350-375 F. Coat gizzards in egg wash and coat in breading. For even extra breading dip in egg wash a second time and back into the breading. Since the gizzards are already cooked they will take minimum time to cook…just cook them until they are crispy and browned. Dry on cooling rack.


White Gravy


1/4 cup butter

1/4 cup flour

2 1/2 cups 2% milk (or whole, see notes)

2 pinches cayenne pepper

salt

fresh ground black pepper


Directions


Start by melting the butter in a large skillet over medium low heat. Then add the flour whisking continuously for about 3 minutes or until lightly browned. Next slowly whisk in the milk until smooth and creamy. Then whisk in the cayenne pepper, salt, and freshly ground black pepper. Continue cooking while whisking frequently until gravy has thickened to your desired consistency.
