1
In a large bowl, whisk together eggs and milk. Add chicken cubes into the mixture, ensuring they are completely coated. Let the chicken marinate in the refrigerator for 15-20 minutes.
2
In another large bowl, mix together flour, breadcrumbs, powdered sugar, kosher salt, white pepper, and chili powder.
3
Remove the marinated chicken cubes from the refrigerator. Dredge the chicken pieces in the breadcrumb mixture, ensuring they are well coated. Set aside for a few minutes to dry.
4
In a large pot or Dutch oven, pour in the peanut oil to a depth of 3 inches for deep frying. Heat the oil to 365-375°F, monitoring the temperature carefully to avoid overheating.
5
Fry the breaded chicken pieces in small batches until golden brown and crispy (approximately 3-4 minutes per batch). Maintain the oil temperature throughout the frying process.
6
Using a slotted spoon, remove the cooked nuggets from the oil and place them on a wire rack or sheet pan to cool slightly. Do not use paper towels, as the nuggets may become soggy from steam.
