Homemade Spicy Chicken Nuggets

Step 1

. In a small bowl whisk together the oil, garlic, honey, sriracha, vinegar, cayenne pepper, and salt.

Step 2

Marinate. Place the cut chicken into a large zip-top bag and pour the marinade on top, massaging into the chicken. Allow the chicken to marinate 3 – 4 hours.

Step 3

. In a large bowl whisk together the breadcrumbs, garlic powder, onion powder, seasoned salt, chili powder, and cayenne pepper.

Step 4

Remove the chicken from the marinade. Coat each chicken chunk generously in the breading mixture.

Step 5

. Turn your oven on warm and set aside a large baking sheet. Heat oil in a medium Dutch oven or electric fryer to 375°F. Working in small batches, fry the chicken until golden brown.

Step 6

Keep warm. Transfer the nuggets onto the baking sheet and place into the warm oven while you fry the remaining chicken.
