Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 lbs. boneless chicken breast sliced into strips

  • 3/4 cups bread crumbs
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons salt

  1. Rub salt all over the chicken.
  2. Arrange the chicken in resealable bags. Vacuum seal using the water displacement method. (check this post to see how)
  3. Sous Vide cook for 1 1/2 hours at 140F.
  4. Slice the cooked chicken breasts into squares.
  5. Place the each piece in a small oval cookie cutter and mold by pressing it using your thumb.
  6. Heat oil in a pot.
  7. Dredge each chicken nugget in flour then dip in beaten egg. Roll over breadcrumbs until coated.
  8. Heat oil in a cooking pot.
