Notes on fried chicken nuggets
1. Selection of materials: It is best to choose chicken thighs for chicken, or buy instant chicken nuggets in the supermarket and fry them directly when you get home, which is very convenient.
2. Fried powder: Fried powder is a combination of starch and low-gluten flour. Chicken pieces fried with starch alone will become soft after a while. If you use low-gluten flour alone, it will taste very hard.
3. Oil temperature: The oil temperature of fried chicken nuggets should be controlled at about 180 degrees. The slurry will float directly on the oil surface, and there will be many oil bubbles around it like boiling. Fried chicken pieces are best at this time. If the temperature is too high or too low, you will not be able to control the time.
