Ingredients

  • 2.5 cups canola oil 
  • 12  chicken tenderloins halved
  • cup crunchy corn cereal recommended: Cap'n Crunch
  • cup rice cereal crispy recommended: Rice Krispies
  •  eggs beaten
  • tablespoons flour all-purpose
  • tablespoons green onions chopped
  • tablespoons honey 
  • 0.5 teaspoon pepper 
  • teaspoon salt 
  • teaspoons salt 
  • cup cup heavy whipping cream sour

Equipment

  • bowl
  • sauce pan
  • oven
  • rolling pin

Directions

  1. Put the 2 cereals into a gallon-sized bag and seal.
  2. Place on a flat surface and, using a rolling pin, crush the cereal until it's still slightly chunky.
  3. Pour into a medium sized bowl and add the flour, salt and pepper and mix to combine.
  4. Dip the chicken pieces into the beaten eggs, 1 at a time, and transfer to the breading mix. Coat well and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
  5. Pour the oil into a large saucepan and place over medium-high heat for 2 to 3 minutes. Test the oil by dropping a bread cube in; if it browns within 1 minute the oil is ready. Drop the chicken nuggets into the hot oil, 4 pieces at a time, and cook 2 minutes, or until the breading is golden and the chicken is cooked through. Repeat with the remaining chicken nuggets. Keep warm in a low oven until ready to serve.
  6. Place all ingredients in a small bowl and mix until well combined. Refrigerate until ready to use.
