Chik-Fil-A Sandwich and Chicken Nuggets






All of our kids adore Chik-Fil-A sandwiches and their nuggets.  I came across this copy-cat recipe online and it's just like what you get at the restaurant. 



3 cups peanut oil
1 egg
1 cup milk
1 cup flour
2 - 1/2 tsp powdered sugar
1/2 tsp pepper
2 tsp salt
2 skinless, boneless chicken breasts, halved lengthwise
4 plain hamburger buns
2 tbsp melted butter
8 dill pickle slices

Mix together the egg and milk.  Place the filets in this mixture and let sit in the refrigerator for at least an hour.  While the breasts are sitting, mix together  the flour, sugar, pepper and salt.  Once the sitting is done, dredge the chicken in the flour.  You can put them back in the milk bath for a few seconds and re-dredge if you prefer.  Place the peanut oil in a deep fryer and bring up to a high heat.  Once up to 375 degrees, gently drop the coated chicken into the oil and cook until golden brown.  Drain on paper towel.  Lightly butter the buns and grill until heated through.  Place two pickles on each bun and place a hot breast on each.

Serves 4

Chicken Nuggets:

Cut the chicken breasts into  strips or nuggets and prepare the same as above.  Serve the nuggets with ketchup, barbecue sauce and honey mustard salad dressing for dipping sauces.
