Ingredients
- 2 boneless skinless chicken breasts (cut into 1-inch pieces)
- 1 cup milk
- 1 egg
- 1/4 cup pickle juice
- 1 cup flour
- 2 tbsp powdered sugar
- 1 tsp paprika

- Prepare the Coating: In a separate bowl, combine flour, powdered sugar, paprika, salt, and pepper.
- Coat the Chicken: Remove chicken from marinade. Dip each piece into the flour mixture, then back into the marinade, and again into the flour for a double coating.
- Fry the Nuggets: Heat oil to 350°F. Fry the nuggets in batches for 3-4 minutes per side or until golden brown.
- Drain and Serve: Drain on paper towels and serve hot with your favorite dipping sauces.
