Cookbook author Molly Stevens knows the secret to making delicious grown-up chicken nuggets. She takes chicken breast and cuts it into pieces, then coats them with panko breadcrumbs and fries them in a mix of olive oil and butter. Here's the trick: she makes sure the chicken pieces are all the same thickness, about 1/3 inch. This is really important because if the chicken is too thick, it'll take forever to cook and the coating might burn before the inside is done. But if it's too thin, it could dry out before the bread turns golden. So, getting that thickness right is key. When frying, pay attention to the heat - the nuggets should sizzle when they hit the pan. That's how you know they're cooking just right!
