   • Finely grind the boneless chicken breast until you achieve a smooth texture.

2. Soften the Bread:

   • Remove the crusts from the bread slices and soak them in warm water. Once softened, squeeze out any excess water and set aside.

3. Mix the Ingredients:

   • In a large mixing bowl, mash the garlic cloves and combine them with the ground chicken, soaked bread, grated cheese, ground black pepper, salt, tapioca flour, and the large egg. Mix everything thoroughly until well incorporated.

4. Steam the Mixture:

   • Grease a round baking pan with margarine and pour the chicken mixture into it. Steam over medium heat until fully cooked and firm to the touch. Allow the mixture to cool before cutting it into bite-sized pieces.

5. Prepare for Frying:

   • For the coating, create a batter by mixing the all-purpose flour with enough water to achieve a smooth consistency. Dip each nugget into this batter, then coat with bread crumbs.

6. Fry the Nuggets:

   • Heat oil in a pan over low heat. Fry the coated nuggets in batches, turning occasionally, until they turn golden brown and crispy.

7. Serve and Enjoy:

   • Once cooked, remove the nuggets from the oil and place them on paper towels to drain any excess oil. Serve warm and enjoy the crunchy, cheesy goodness!
