How to cook deliciously - Copycat Chick-fil-A Nuggets

1. Stage

Place the chicken pieces and pickle juice in a bowl, and toss until the chicken is well coated with juice. Set this aside at room temperature for 30 minutes. While it marinates, whisk the cornstarch, soy, egg white, seasonings and Dijon mustard to make a thick batter. Add this batter to the chicken mixture, and toss again to thoroughly coat the pieces.

2. Stage

Combine the remaining Dijon mustard with barbecue sauce and honey, mixing them well. Set the dip aside.

3. Stage

In a deep skillet or electric skillet, heat 1 inch of oil to 375°F. Fry the chicken pieces a few at a time until they’re browned and their juices run clear, roughly one to two minutes on each side. Drain the nuggets on paper towels as they come out of the oil. Serve the nuggets hot, with their dipping sauce.
