How to Make Asian Style Chicken Nuggets

1. Thaw frozen chicken breast completely if needed.
2. In a small bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons honey, 2 tablespoons soy sauce, and 1 tablespoon grated ginger to create your marinade.
3. Cut 1 pound of chicken breast into bite-sized pieces (about 1 inch). Marinate the chicken in the honey mixture for at least 15 minutes (longer is better!).
4. Prepare three shallow dishes: one with 1 cup cornstarch, one with 2 large eggs beaten, and one with 1 1/2 cups breadcrumbs.
5. Dredge each chicken piece in the cornstarch, then the beaten egg, and finally the breadcrumbs, ensuring it's fully coated.
6. Carefully add the chicken nuggets to a pot of hot oil (about 350°F/175°C) in batches, ensuring not to overcrowd the pot. Deep-fry for 5-7 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through, turning occasionally.
7. Remove the nuggets with a slotted spoon and place them on a wire rack to drain excess oil.
8. Serve hot with your favorite dipping sauce. Enjoy!
