Ingredients

1 package Phat Crumbs
1 pound chicken breast
2 eggs
Oil/Fat of choice for cooking (we have used avocado oil and duck fat) or air fryer

Directions

Thinly slice chicken breasts into desired nugget shape. The smaller the better as the cracker crumbs tend to brown quickly.
Whisk eggs and add chicken pieces to the egg mixture to coat.
Heat desired amount of oil in a skillet on medium high heat. We used about 1/4 cup.
In batches, dip the egg coated chicken into the Phat Crumbs to coat and fry in a single layer, flipping as needed, until golden brown and cooked through (7-10 minutes). Alternatively pre-heat air fryer to 390 degrees and cook in the air fryer in a single layer for 6-7 minutes. Serve with your favorite dipping sauce.

Recipe Note

Alternatively you can cook in an air fryer, however we have not yet tested the cook time.
