Nashville Hot Chicken Nuggets

Don’t have time to travel to Nashville for their famous Hot Chicken?

Well, I am bringing Nashville to you with my Nashville Hot Chicken Nuggets!

Yes folks, this is my take on the super spicy fried chicken made famous by .

Now I must tell ya’ this chicken is not BLAND!

Matter of fact I can’t cook food without a lot of spices because it’s not in my genetic makeup to eat spiceless food.

Not only am I creating a super spice blend to season the chicken, I am also marinating the chicken in hot sauce.

I find that marinating the chicken in hot sauce gives the chicken extra spice and creates a beautiful extra crunchy crust.

Don’t forget to have a loaf of fresh bread and a big jar of pickles to eat with your Hot Chicken!

Pickles and Hot Chicken is how it’s served in Nashville and when you try my Hot Chicken Nuggets you’ll understand what all the hoopla is really about.

I fried my chicken nuggets in batches because you don’t want to overcrowd the pan and take away the chicken crunch by steaming the chicken instead of frying it!

It should take around 3-4 batches depending on the size of your pan.

Also, don’t forget the chicken grease is your best friend.

We’re going to use some of the chicken grease and add loads of spices and create a spicy chicken oil.

If you can’t handle the heat I really don’t know what to tell ya!

After I remove the Hot Chicken from the spicy oil I actually sprinkle extra cayenne pepper on it.

This chicken is so hot the only thing that can help cool your mouth off is ice cold milk and Popsicles!

Enjoy.
