Nuggets in a flash - a (great) Noosh original recipe


Today: Rain. Rain. Boredom. Fighting. Crying. Screaming. More rain. 

Solution: Easy dinner with minimal time required for prep and even less for cooking.

Menu: Chicken nuggets, wedges and salad.

You'll need: 
*Chicken breast, diced into 2.5cm cubes
*Plain flour - 2-3 tablespoons to coat cubes + about a cup in a separate bowl (depending how many nuggets you're making)
*Soda water (add this to the flour in the 2nd bowl - you'll need enough to make the consistency of thickened cream)
*Chicken salt (you could use ordinary salt here and the amount is up to you but I find chicken salt tastier. Add a pinch to the soda water/flour mix)
*Oil for deep frying (hey I never said it was healthy!)

Method
Drop your floured chicken cubes into batter mix - then carefuly drop them into heated oil. The batter will puff slightly, the nuggets will float to the surface - cook until golden. Remove and drain on kitchen paper towels.

For the wedges: New white potatoes cut into wedges, spray with olive oil spray, bake in oven for about 40 minutes. Sprinkle with chicken salt. I'll assume you know how to make a salad? 

My boys ate more tonight than they have in a week.
