Easy Chicken and Carrot Nuggets (No Grinder Needed)

Ingredients

• 500 grams chicken meat – finely chopped or ground
• 1 carrot – diced into very small pieces
• 6 tablespoons sago flour
• 1 egg – lightly beaten
• Seasoning Paste:
  • 4 cloves garlic
  • 1 teaspoon ground pepper
  • Salt – to taste
  • 1/2 packet chicken-flavored bouillon powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon granulated sugar
• Coating:
  • 2 eggs – lightly beaten
  • 125 grams orange-colored breadcrumbs

Instructions

1. Prepare the Chicken: If using a grinder, grind the chicken meat. Alternatively, you can finely chop the chicken using a knife until it reaches a smooth consistency.

2. Mix the Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the chopped chicken, diced carrots, sago flour, and the beaten egg. Add the seasoning paste (blend garlic, ground pepper, salt, chicken-flavored bouillon powder, and granulated sugar together to make the paste). Mix everything thoroughly until well combined.

3. Steam the Mixture: Lightly grease a loaf pan or any suitable steaming container with a little cooking oil. Pour the chicken mixture into the prepared pan, spreading it evenly. Heat your steamer and steam the mixture for about 30 minutes.

4. Cool and Cut: Once steamed, let the mixture cool slightly. Cut the steamed chicken mixture into your desired nugget shapes.

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

6. Freeze: Arrange the coated nuggets in a single layer on a tray or plate. Place them in the freezer for at least 1 hour to allow the coating to adhere properly. This step ensures that the breadcrumbs stick well and the nuggets maintain their shape during frying. If you have leftover nuggets, store them in an airtight container in the freezer for future use.

7. Fry and Serve: When ready to cook, heat oil in a deep fryer or a deep pan. Fry the nuggets until they are golden brown and crispy. Serve hot with your favorite dipping sauce.
