U like nuggets? Ur kids as well? Got a better way to enjoy?
But how many of you are consuming nuggets in a healthy way?
Let me guess... most of the nuggets are prepared in this way...
DEEP FRIED!
Yep... that's the fastest and crispier way to prepare Chicken nuggets, as well as fish nuggets.
MICRO WAVE?
We know the physics on how micro-wave works right? I had tried micro-wave nuggets before... but, it's not as crispy as frying. Hence, the lack of month pleasures.
So... is there, any other methods?
Yes!!!! But, this "tool" needs to be present in your home! A Toaster Oven!
But when it comes to fish nuggets, i'm sorry, you'll still have to be dependent on frying!
Here's how to prepare crispy Chicken nuggets without using oil. Depending on the type of your toaster oven, my recommended toasting time is 15mins. Here, i refer to the use of traditional toaster oven which you're unable to control the heating element either from top or bottom, for all's convenience sake.
1. Make use of the supplied tray that comes with your toaster oven. Crumple and Spread a sheet of aluminum foil on the tray, covering all sides.
2. Place the nuggets piece by piece, with a gap of 2 or 3 mm apart from one another, should gets you 12 nuggets in most of the standard sized trays.
3. Close your toaster oven's door, turn the timer to 15mins, let the nuggets cook. You should be able to see oil/fats oozes out from the nuggets thru the transparent window when 10mins had passed. Let the nuggets cook, till the end of 15mins.
4. when you pull open the door of your toaster oven, you should be able to hear the sizzling frying noise from the nuggets. Let it cool down for 3mins or so... then pick out the nuggets from the foil, or just pick/hold the foil containing the nuggets, place it onto a plate.
5. Enjoy! (be warned that some of the batter of nuggets will stick to the foil, remember to pick it out before serving it to your kids!)
