   • Blend approximately 5 tablespoons of oatmeal until fine. Transfer the blended oats to a mixing bowl.

2. Blend the Chicken:

   • Cut the chicken breast fillets into smaller pieces for easier blending. Blend the chicken in batches to ensure it is thoroughly processed. Add the blended chicken to the bowl with the oats and mix until well combined.

3. Separate the Egg:

   • Separate the egg yolk from the white. Add the egg yolk to the chicken mixture and mix until evenly distributed.

4. Season and Add Vegetables:

   • Finely chop the green onion and celery. Add these to the chicken mixture along with the salt, pepper, and mushroom broth powder. Mix well, ensuring the seasoning is evenly distributed.

5. Steam the Mixture:

   • Transfer the chicken mixture into a mold or a steaming dish. Steam the mixture for approximately 25-30 minutes. Once done, allow it to cool for about 45-60 minutes until it becomes firm.

6. Cut and Prepare the Nuggets:

   • Once the steamed chicken mixture is cooled and firm, cut it into small nugget-sized pieces.

7. Prepare the Coating:

   • In a bowl, mix the bread crumbs with the remaining unblended oats. In a separate bowl, place the egg white.

8. Coat the Nuggets:

   • Dip each nugget piece into the egg white, then roll it in the bread crumb and oat mixture. For a thicker coating, dip the nugget again in the egg white and then back into the bread crumb and oat mixture.

9. Freeze for Firmness:

   • Place the coated nuggets in an airtight container and freeze for a while to ensure the coating sticks well.

10. Fry the Nuggets:

    • Heat oil in a pan over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot, fry the nuggets until they are golden brown and crispy.
