What are chicken nuggets?

Chicken nuggets are bite-sized pieces of chicken meat that have been coated with breading and deep-fried. They are a popular fast-food item, frequently seen on the menus of restaurants such as McDonald's and Burger King. Chicken nuggets are usually made from boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs that are cut into small pieces, coated with a seasoned batter, and then deep-fried until they are crispy and golden brown. These small pieces of chicken can be served plain or with various dipping sauces, such as sweet and sour sauce, barbecue sauce, or honey mustard. Chicken nuggets are famous as a convenient and kid-friendly meal and can also be cooked at home.
