My homemade, better than fast food chicken nuggets are nothing like a commercially produced chicken tender.

My trick is to grind up raw organic chicken thighs by pulsing them in my food processor.

I add a bit of seasoning to the ground meat and shape the nuggets. After dipping them in whisked egg yolks, I toss them around in homemade breadcrumbs. Brown them on both sides in some home-rendered lard... and voilà! These chicken nuggets are good for toddlers to adults.

The best thing is the nuggets freeze exceptionally well. To reheat, simply bake them in the oven at 375 degrees F for 10-15 minutes.
