2. Combine Ingredients:
   In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground chicken with the grated carrots, tapioca flour, breadcrumbs, minced garlic, and plain UHT milk. Season the mixture with salt and ground pepper to taste. Mix thoroughly until all ingredients are well incorporated.

3. Adjust Seasoning:
   Taste the mixture and adjust the seasoning if necessary.

4. Steam the Mixture:
   Prepare a steamer. Transfer the chicken mixture into a heatproof tray lined with plastic wrap. Steam for approximately 30 minutes, or until the mixture is cooked through and firm.

5. Cool and Slice:
   Once steamed, remove the tray from the steamer and allow it to cool completely. After cooling, cut the mixture into nugget-sized pieces.

6. Prepare for Coating:
   Beat the egg in a shallow dish. In another shallow dish, place additional breadcrumbs for coating.

7. Coat the Nuggets:
   Dip each nugget piece into the beaten egg, then roll in the breadcrumbs until well coated.

8. Freeze:
   Place the coated nuggets on a tray and freeze for at least 1 hour to help them hold their shape during frying.

9. Fry and Serve:
   Heat oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Fry the frozen nuggets until golden brown and crispy, about 4-5 minutes per side. Drain on paper towels and serve hot.
